Applications for modifying faces (masks)

The introduction of neural networks into applications greatly facilitates the process of working with visual content. Ideas that until recently seemed almost unattainable are now being implemented using artificial intelligence (AI), neural networks and machine learning.

The capabilities of modern applications allow you to quickly and efficiently correct images: change the age, gender, color of eyes and hair of a person, as well as completely modify his face.

A neural network is a mathematical model, the structure of which actually repeats the structure of the human nervous system. Thus, the machine acquires the ability to process, analyze and memorize various information, as well as effectively interpret experience. Its progress largely depends on the size of the database: the larger it is, the smarter the network. Following the latest technological trends, neural learning is actively used in the development of many software products that perform various tasks.

Thanks to artificial intelligence, the programs process photos and make changes that look natural and have little to no noticeable flaws. To this end, the neural network analyzes the image and captures important features of a person’s appearance. For example, it defines the area of ​​the mouth to turn closed lips into a smile. In order for the program to “see” the face in the photo, the development uses computer vision technology (a pattern recognition system that identifies and classifies objects). In this case, the main task of the developers is to get the application to make the edited image look as realistic as possible.

One of the most famous neural network applications is FaceApp. It helps to edit photos, add masks, apply makeup, “age” and “rejuvenate” the user’s image. Face Booth, AgingBooth and Face Changer Photo Gender Editor have similar capabilities.

Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) technology, built on machine learning, goes even further and generates photographs that are almost indistinguishable from images of real people. Its principle of operation is as follows: the application takes information about a face from one photo and applies it to another. It works with a huge database of millions of user photos and is rapidly improving.

Also, GAN algorithms can restore clarity and improve the quality of images, so the technology is used to enhance photos to make them more attractive and informative.

These applications can use cloud services that collect and store huge amounts of data. Another innovative tool, augmented reality technology, which makes it possible to use filters and masks in real time, also shows good results.

The main task of neural networks is to quickly and correctly interpret information. Artificial intelligence algorithms are aimed at the most accurate data recognition and analysis.

Most experts are confident that in the foreseeable future, applications will learn to fully self-learn using neural networks and move to a new stage of technological development.

The AVADA MEDIA team specializes in the development of scalable software, including applications for modifying faces based on artificial intelligence. Our products have a wide range of functionality that combines unique algorithms for changing the face.

Trends in the world of photo editors are changing rapidly, so we always keep our finger on the pulse and create truly effective and competitive solutions that become profitable business projects in a short time. We use various programming languages, libraries, frameworks and other tools depending on the features of the future product.

There are several strategies for monetizing face modification apps. They can be easily combined to find the perfect fit. Let’s dwell on some of the popular monetization models in more detail:

• Limitation of opportunities

The program is free to download, but it will contain a basic set of features. To access other tools, the user will need to purchase a premium subscription.

• Advertising display

This is the most common way to make money for free apps on the market.

At the same time, users can be annoyed by the amount of ads, so they should be relevant and displayed in moderation.

• Trial period

Many people are wary of completely paid products, but a free trial will help dispel their doubts.

• Selling subscriptions

In this monetization model, consumers are offered a paid subscription for a comfortable use of the application without ads.

For 9 years, AVADA MEDIA has been helping companies create quality products, reducing time and costs at every stage.

The company’s specialists develop stable and reliable software with high performance, which helps to optimize our clients’ business. Thanks to the experience and high qualifications in the field of application development, we bring the product to the market as soon as possible, provide it with a high level of security and create a user-friendly interface.
