The proposed adaptive high-quality talking-head video generation method synthesizes high-resolution videos without additional pre-trained modules. This approach down-samples the one-shot source image and adaptively reconstructs high-frequency details via an encoder-decoder module, resulting in enhanced video clarity. The method consistently improves the quality of generated videos through a straightforward yet effective strategy, substantiated by quantitative and qualitative evaluations.

This paper shows how to create talking-head videos from just one picture of someone’s face. Usually, this requires changing pixel values or warping facial images to make the person look like they’re in different positions. However, these methods can compromise image quality. Some approaches try to improve video quality by adding extra modules, but this increases computational costs and changes the original data. This work proposes a new method that synthesizes high-quality videos without needing additional pre-trained modules. It does this by downsampling the source image and then reconstructing high-frequency details using an encoder-decoder module.
