GAN
A Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) is a generative AI architecture consisting of two neural networks: a Generator (which creates fake data) and a Discriminator (which evaluates if the data is real or fake). The networks train in competition, forcing the generator to produce high-fidelity data.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is mode collapse in GANs?▼
Mode collapse is a training failure where the generator learns to produce only a limited variety of outputs that fool the discriminator, rather than diverse samples.
Who invented GANs?▼
Ian Goodfellow and his colleagues in 2014.
