Improving “Hard-to-Edit-Facial-Images” in AI Renderings
Most people who generate AI images will, at one time or another, generate an image that is good except for the face.
Many times you can use the techniques I outlined in my article on Improving AI-Generated Faces.
GFPGAN and Baseten
Where Baseten and GFPGAN are weak is when trying to improve faces that are only a small portion of the image. Like with the image below. In this article, we will look at a few ways to work around that. Assume you wanted the following overall image. You would like to improve the face, as the eyes are kind of wonky.
Your first step may be to use the GFPGAN outlined in the above-mentioned article or Baseten website.

If you load the image in GFPGAN or Baseten the results are less than spectacular.
