Facial Feature Preservation Heuristic

Unique: Uses facial landmark detection and weighted loss functions to attempt identity preservation during character conditioning, rather than pure style transfer or face-swap approaches—but the heuristic is imperfect and often sacrifices likeness for stylization

vs others: More identity-aware than pure style transfer tools, but less effective at preserving facial likeness than dedicated face-replacement algorithms that use explicit face-swapping rather than conditional generation
