Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs)

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are an exciting new deep learning technique pioneered by Ian Goodfellow and his research lab. This new model describes a framework for training competing models that perform opposite tasks: generating data and discriminating the veracity of training instances. By training a generative and discriminative model we can tackle a range of tasks from generating more accurate representations of real data as well as improving semi-supervised learning techniques.
