A generative adversarial network (GAN) is a type of machine learning model that can be used to generate new data that is similar to the data that it was trained on. GANs are made up of two main components: a generator and a discriminator. The generator is Neural Network (NN) responsible for creating new data. The generator takes as input a random noise vector and outputs a new data sample. The generator is trained to maximize the probability that the discriminator will classify its output as real data. The discriminator is also a NN responsible for distinguishing between real data and data that was generated by the generator. The discriminator takes as input a data sample and outputs a probability that the sample is real. The discriminator is trained to minimize the probability that it will classify real data as fake data. The generator and discriminator are trained together in an adversarial manner. This means that the generator is trying to create data that the discriminator cannot distinguish from real data, and the discriminator is trying to improve its ability to distinguish between real data and data that was generated by the generator. This process is repeated over and over again, and as it does, the generator becomes better at creating realistic data, and the discriminator becomes better at distinguishing between real data and data that was generated by the generator. Eventually, the generator will be able to create data that is so realistic that the discriminator cannot tell the difference between it and real data. GANs have been used to generate a variety of different types of data, including images, text, and audio. They have the potential to be used in a wide variety of applications, such as image generation, text generation, and speech synthesis. |
