The Test part and The UE project for xiaomei created by FACEGOOD is not available for commercial use.they are for testing purposes only.

We create a project that transforms audio to blendshape weights,and drives the digital human,xiaomei,in UE project.
The framework we used contains three parts. In Formant network step, we perform fixed-function analysis of the input audio clip. In the articulation network, we concatenate an emotional state vector to the output of each convolution layer after the ReLU activation. The fully-connected layers at the end expand the 256+E abstract features to blendshape weights.
this pipeline shows how we use FACEGOOD Audio2Face.
Test video 1 Test video 2 Ryan Yun from columbia.edu
- step1: record voice and video ,and create animation from video in maya. note: the voice must contain vowel ,exaggerated talking and normal talking.Dialogue covers as many pronunciations as possible.
- step2: we deal the voice with LPC,to split the voice into segment frames corresponding to the animation frames in maya.
Use ExportBsWeights.py to export weights file from Maya.Then we can get BS_name.npy and BS_value.npy .
Use step1_LPC.py to deal with wav file to get lpc_*.npy . Preprocess the wav to 2d data.
We recommand that uses FACEGOOD avatary to produces trainning data.its fast and accurate. http://www.avatary.com
All train code in folder code/train.
the data for train is stored in dataSet In windows, you can simply download the dataset in the following link, then use the script to train the model.
./train.bat
or you can use the following commands to generate data, train and test the model.
[Note: you need to modify the path in every files to your own path.]
cd code/train
python step1_LPC.py // deal with wav file to get lpc_*.npy
python step3_concat_select_split.py // generate train data and label
python step4_train.py // train model
python step5_inference.py // inference model
In folder /test,we supply a test application named AiSpeech.
wo provide a pretrained model,zsmeif.pb
In floder /example/ueExample, we provide a packaged ue project that contains a digit human created by FACEGOOD can drived by /AiSpeech/zsmeif.py.
you can follow the steps below to use it:
- make sure you connect the microphone to computer.
- run the script in terminal.
python zsmeif.py
- when the terminal show the message "run main", please run FaceGoodLiveLink.exe which is placed in /example/ueExample/ folder.
- click and hold on the left mouse button on the screen in UE project, then you can talk with the AI model and wait for the voice and animation response.

The testing data, Maya model, and ue4 test project can be downloaded from the link below.
the index of dataset 4-16 is for trainning.

Add maya model in maya-model folder
uploaded the LPC source into code folder.
