Spectral Normalization for Generative Adversarial Networks

Task: Conditional GANs

Abstract

One of the challenges in the study of generative adversarial networks is the instability of its training. In this paper, we propose a novel weight normalization technique called spectral normalization to stabilize the training of the discriminator. Our new normalization technique is computationally light and easy to incorporate into existing implementations. We tested the efficacy of spectral normalization on CIFAR10, STL-10, and ILSVRC2012 dataset, and we experimentally confirmed that spectrally normalized GANs (SN-GANs) is capable of generating images of better or equal quality relative to the previous training stabilization techniques.

'*' Iteration counting rule in our implementation is different from others. If you want to align with other codebases, you can use the following conversion formula:

total_iters (biggan/pytorch studio gan) = our_total_iters / disc_step

We also provide converted pre-train models from Pytorch-StudioGAN. To be noted that, in Pytorch Studio GAN, inplace ReLU is used in generator and discriminator.

  • Our Pipeline denote results evaluated with our pipeline.
  • StudioGAN denote results released by Pytorch-StudioGAN.

For IS metric, our implementation is different from PyTorch-Studio GAN in the following aspects:

  1. We use Tero's Inception for feature extraction.
  2. We use bicubic interpolation with PIL backend to resize image before feed them to Inception.

For FID evaluation, we follow the pipeline of BigGAN, where the whole training set is adopted to extract inception statistics, and Pytorch Studio GAN uses 50000 randomly selected samples. Besides, we also use Tero's Inception for feature extraction.

You can download the preprocessed inception state by the following url: CIFAR10 and ImageNet1k.

You can use following commands to extract those inception states by yourself.

# For CIFAR10
python tools/utils/inception_stat.py --data-cfg configs/_base_/datasets/cifar10_inception_stat.py --pklname cifar10.pkl --no-shuffle --inception-style stylegan --num-samples -1 --subset train

# For ImageNet1k
python tools/utils/inception_stat.py --data-cfg configs/_base_/datasets/imagenet_128x128_inception_stat.py --pklname imagenet.pkl --no-shuffle --inception-style stylegan --num-samples -1 --subset train
