Systems and methods for searching and ranking personalized videos are provided. An example method includes receiving a user request via a communication chat between a user of a computing device and a further user of a further computing device, searching, based on the user request, a pool of personalized videos to determine a first subset of personalized videos, determining first rankings of personalized videos in the first subset of personalized videos, the first rankings being based on global statistical data associated with the personalized videos, selecting, based on the first rankings, a second subset of personalized videos from the first subset of personalized videos, determining, based on at least one characteristic associated with the user, second rankings of personalized videos from the second subset of personalized videos, and presenting the personalized videos selected from the second subset within the communication chat and in order according to the second rankings.

Searching and ranking personalized videos

Systems and methods for providing personalized videos are provided. An example method includes receiving preprocessed videos including a target face and facial expression parameters of the target face, modifying the preprocessed videos to generate one or more personalized videos by replacing the target face with a source face, where the source face is modified to adopt the facial expression parameters of the target face, providing a user interface enabling a user to share at least one personalized video of the one or more personalized videos with a further user of a further computing device, determining that an application to be used to share the personalized video does not allow auto-play of the personalized video in a video format, in response the determination, exporting the personalized video of the one or more personalized videos into an image file, and sharing the image file via the application.

Personalized videos

Disclosed are systems and methods for template-based generation of personalized videos. An example method includes receiving a sequence of frame images, face area parameters corresponding to positions of a face area in a frame image of the sequence of frame images, and facial landmark parameters corresponding to the frame image of the sequence of frame images, receiving an image of a source face, modifying, based on the facial landmark parameters corresponding to the frame image, the image of the source face to obtain a further face image featuring the source face adopting a facial expression corresponding to the facial landmark parameters, and inserting the further face image into the frame image at a position determined by the face area parameters corresponding to the frame image, thereby generating an output frame of an output video.

Template-based generation of personalized videos

Provided are systems and methods for providing personalized videos featuring multiple persons. An example method includes enabling a communication chat between a user of a computing device and at least one further user of at least one further computing device, receiving a user selection of a video from one or more personalized videos, receiving an image of a source face and a further image of a further source face, modifying the image of the source face to generate an image of a modified source face, modifying the further image of the further source face to generate an image of a modified further source face, replacing, in the video, a target face with the image of the modified source face and at least one further target face with the modified further source face to generate a personalized video, and sending the personalized video to the at least one further user.
