Face Re-aging Network

December 6, 2022

Disney has unveiled the Face Re-aging Network (FRAN), a neural network that can age or rejuvenate actors in real time. At the heart of AI is a database that consists of several thousand randomly generated faces ranging from 18 to 85 years old. The neural network takes these casts and, based on a real person, predicts which parts of the face and how aging will affect them. However, the commercial application of the technology has not yet been found. In addition, AI still has a couple of unresolved limitations: the neural network works well only with adults, and the age change step is about 10 years.
