Outline the course structure and costs, introduce yarn and code, and map progress through GAN topics with planned updates and future content.
In this lecture, we construct the generator for the GAN project, configuring nz, ngf, and nc, building a sequential convolutional generator and implementing its forward pass.
Iterate on discriminator construction for GANs, copy and adapt code, compare activation choices such as leaky relu, and implement global average pooling to streamline the network.
Train a fully connected network as a generative adversarial network, with a generator producing samples and a discriminator learning to distinguish real and fake images.
Explore the dcgan architecture, including generator and discriminator with convolutional layers and activation functions, and implement a TensorFlow-based project with data preparation, training, and evaluation.
Train a dcgan by generating images from noise and iteratively updating the generator and discriminator (critic) across epochs, monitoring g_loss and d_loss.
Learn how wgan extends generative adversarial networks to stabilize training with a loss that correlates with the quality of generated images and a critic, reducing sensitivity to architecture and hyperparameters.
Celebrate your progress in this gan course and commit to ongoing practice to become a successful deep learning engineer. Seek mentorship while setting goals and building models with datasets.
GANs have been one of the most interesting developments in deep learning and machine learning recently.
Yann LeCun, a deep learning pioneer, has said that the most important development in recent years has been adversarial training, referring to GANs.
GAN stands for generative adversarial network, where 2 neural networks compete with each other.
What is unsupervised learning?
Unsupervised learning means we’re not trying to map input data to targets, we’re just trying to learn the structure of that input data.
This course is a comprehensive guide to Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). The theories are explained in-depth and in a friendly manner. After each theoretical lesson, we will dive together into a hands-on session, where we will be learning how to code different types of GANs in PyTorch and Tensorflow, which is a very advanced and powerful deep learning framework!
In this first course, You will learn
GAN
DCGAN
WGAN
"If you can't implement it, you don't understand it"
Or as the great physicist Richard Feynman said: "What I cannot create, I do not understand".
My courses are the ONLY courses where you will learn how to implement machine learning algorithms from scratch
Other courses will teach you how to plug in your data into a library, but do you really need help with 3 lines of code?
After doing the same thing with 10 datasets, you realize you didn't learn 10 things. You learned 1 thing, and just repeated the same 3 lines of code 10 times...
