Wasserstein Introspective Neural Networks
We present Wasserstein introspective neural networks (WINN) that are both a
generator and a discriminator within a single model. WINN provides a
significant improvement over the recent introspective neural networks (INN)
method by enhancing INN's generative modeling capability. WINN has three
interesting properties: (1) A mathematical connection between the formulation
of the INN algorithm and that of Wasserstein generative adversarial networks
(WGAN) is made. (2) The explicit adoption of the Wasserstein distance into INN
results in a large enhancement to INN, achieving compelling results even with a
single classifier --- e.g., providing nearly a 20 times reduction in model size
over INN for unsupervised generative modeling. (3) When applied to supervised
classification, WINN also gives rise to improved robustness against adversarial
examples in terms of the error reduction. In the experiments, we report
encouraging results on unsupervised learning problems including texture, face,
and object modeling, as well as a supervised classification task against
adversarial attacks.Comment: Accepted to CVPR 2018 (Oral
