From Short Clips to Real-Time Streams: Identity-Aware Supervision and Context-Efficient Generation for Video Face Swapping

Video face swapping transfers the reference identity to a target video while preserving its other attributes and motion.

Key points

  • Despite recent progress in reference-guided flow-based methods, jointly achieving faithful identity transfer, high fidelity, and real-time generation over long video streams remains challenging.
  • To address this challenge, we rethink the task-specific structure of reference-guided video face swapping.
  • By integrating these designs, we propose StreamingSwap, a reference-guided flow-matching framework for real-time streaming video face swapping.
  • Experiments demonstrate that our method achieves competitive identity transfer and visual quality at 20 FPS on a single NVIDIA RTX 4090 GPU, with stable generation over videos up to 10 minutes long.
