Mode Regularized Generative Adversarial Networks
Although Generative Adversarial Networks achieve state-of-the-art results on
a variety of generative tasks, they are regarded as highly unstable and prone
to miss modes. We argue that these bad behaviors of GANs are due to the very
particular functional shape of the trained discriminators in high dimensional
spaces, which can easily make training stuck or push probability mass in the
wrong direction, towards that of higher concentration than that of the data
generating distribution. We introduce several ways of regularizing the
objective, which can dramatically stabilize the training of GAN models. We also
show that our regularizers can help the fair distribution of probability mass
across the modes of the data generating distribution, during the early phases
of training and thus providing a unified solution to the missing modes problem.Comment: Published as a conference paper at ICLR 201
