Hear Your Face: Face-based voice conversion with F0 estimation

This paper delves into the emerging field of face-based voice conversion, leveraging the unique relationship between an individual's facial features and their vocal characteristics. We present a novel face-based voice conversion framework that particularly utilizes the average fundamental frequency of the target speaker, derived solely from their facial images. Through extensive analysis, our framework demonstrates superior speech generation quality and the ability to align facial features with voice characteristics, including tracking of the target speaker's fundamental frequency.
