The proposed Learn2Talk framework aims to improve 3D talking face generation by leveraging expertise from 2D talking faces. It consists of a 3D sync-lip expert model for lip-syncing audio with facial motion and an audio-to-3D motions regression network guided by a teacher model selected from 2D talking face methods. This framework is evaluated extensively, showing advantages in terms of lip-sync, vertex accuracy, and speech perception compared to state-of-the-art models. The proposed framework has applications in audio-visual speech recognition and speech-driven 3D Gaussian Splatting based avatar animation.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The paper proposes a new way to make 3D faces talk like real people. It uses ideas from making 2D faces talk and combines them with special techniques for lip-syncing and facial movement. The result is a more realistic and accurate 3D talking face that can be used in things like speech recognition and animations.
