BEACON: Behavior and Appearance Control for Subject-Specific Video Generation
A new arXiv paper introduces BEACON, a method for generating videos of a specific person that retains both their visual identity and their individual expressive behavior. The authors argue that beyond matching appearance, such models must also capture the facial mannerisms that distinguish how a given subject acts on camera. The work targets human-centric video synthesis where subject-specific fidelity is the main challenge.
