Frontal Face Generation Based on Attitude Point Guidance and Attention Mechanism Improvement by Jihui Zhao, Zhengyi Yuan, Junhu Zhang, Haitao Li, Hui Li

“…In the generator part, the self-attention mechanism is introduced to obtain the dependence between feature points and other position features, which enhances the illumination perception ability of the network layer. At the same time, local attention is used in a discriminator to improve the local detail generation ability of the network in the face. …”
