Programme:

Alex Lau on WGAN-GP

Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) is notorious for being hard to train. Wasserstein GAN with Gradient Penalty, as one of its variant, comes into the rescue. The talk wil start with a number of major problems you commonly faced when training a GAN. Then, we are going to explain how WGAN-GP can tackle the problem. A few applications of WGAN-GP will be highlighted.
