Towards Real-World Blind Face Restoration with Generative Diffusion Prior

arXiv:2312.15736v2 Announce Type: replace
Abstract: Blind face restoration is an important task in computer vision and has gained significant attention due to its wide-range applications. Previous works mainly exploit facial priors to restore face images and have demonstrated high-quality results. However, generating faithful facial details remains a challenging problem due to the limited prior knowledge obtained from finite data. In this work, we delve into the potential of leveraging the pretrained Stable Diffusion for blind face restoration. We propose BFRffusion …
