M.S. Paper Title: Analysis of Generative Adversarial Models

Abstract:
We study Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and their applications
to various tasks, as well as the creation of a measure to analyze
their performance. We create a novel network that can be used for
interpretability, image generation, and augmenting existing datasets.
Last, we create a new measure that scores sets of images. The measure
computes the relative divergence between the test set and generated
set. This measure has several nice properties: tracks image quality,
is unbiased, detects when the generator has missing modes, and
captures the divergence of the generative model to a test
distribution.

Steven's advisor is Prof. Risi Kondor
