The record

Purpose: SimSwap is an arbitrary face-swapping framework for images and videos that uses one trained model.
Image support: It supports swapping faces in aligned images and arbitrary images, including replacing one face or all faces in an image.
Video support: Video options include swapping the highest-confidence face, all faces, a specified face, or multiple specified faces.
Masking: The usage guide recommends using a mask for better visual effects and also describes bounding-box pasting as an alternative.
High resolution: The project provides a beta SimSwap 512 model and says to set crop size to 512 to use it.
Watermark: The example commands add the SimSwap logo watermark by default, and the `--no_simswaplogo` option controls its removal.
Requirements: The preparation guide recommends a GPU with at least 3 GB of memory and points users without one to a Colab notebook implementation.
Operating systems: The maker says its recommended setup has been tested on Windows and Ubuntu.
Dependencies: The README lists Python 3.6+, PyTorch 1.5+, torchvision, OpenCV, Pillow, NumPy, imageio, moviepy, InsightFace, and timm 0.5.4 as dependencies.
Integrations: The README links to a Colab demo and an image-swapping demo and Docker image on Replicate.
License and use: The project states it is for academic and non-commercial use only and is released under CC-BY-NC 4.0.
Use guidance: The README says the project is for technical and academic use and asks users not to apply it to illegal or unethical scenarios.
Support: The README invites questions through GitHub issues and lists three email addresses for project suggestions and contact.
Image and video modes: The usage guide documents face swapping in both images and videos.
