Repository Details

Two time-scale update rule for training GANs

Two time-scale update rule for training GANs

This repository contains code accompanying the paper GANs Trained by a Two Time-Scale Update Rule Converge to a Local Nash Equilibrium.

Fréchet Inception Distance (FID)

The FID is the performance measure used to evaluate the experiments in the paper. There, a detailed description can be found in the experiment section as well as in the the appendix in section A1.

In short: The Fréchet distance between two multivariate Gaussians X_1 ~ N(mu_1, C_1) and X_2 ~ N(mu_2, C_2) is

                   d^2 = ||mu_1 - mu_2||^2 + Tr(C_1 + C_2 - 2*sqrt(C_1*C_2)).

The FID is calculated by assuming that X_1 and X_2 are the activations of the coding layer pool_3 of the inception model (see below) for generated samples and real world samples respectivly. mu_n is the mean and C_n the covariance of the activations of the coding layer over all real world or generated samples.

IMPORTANT: The number of samples to calculate the Gaussian statistics (mean and covariance) should be greater than the dimension of the coding layer, here 2048 for the Inception pool 3 layer. Otherwise the covariance is not full rank resulting in complex numbers and nans by calculating the square root.

We recommend using a minimum sample size of 10,000 to calculate the FID otherwise the true FID of the generator is underestimated.

Compatibility notice

Previous versions of this repository contained two implementations to calculate the FID, a "unbatched" and a "batched" version. The "unbatched" version should not be used anymore. If you've downloaded this code previously, please update it immediately to the new version. The old version included a bug!

A pytorch implementation of the FID

If you're looking for a pytorch implementation we recommend https://github.com/mseitzer/pytorch-fid

Provided Code

Requirements: TF 1.1+, Python 3.x

fid.py

This file contains the implementation of all necessary functions to calculate the FID. It can be used either as a python module imported into your own code, or as a standalone script to calculate the FID between precalculated (training set) statistics and a directory full of images, or between two directories of images.

To compare directories with pre-calculated statistics (e.g. the ones from http://bioinf.jku.at/research/ttur/), use:

fid.py /path/to/images /path/to/precalculated_stats.npz

To compare two directories, use

fid.py /path/to/images /path/to/other_images

See fid.py --help for more details.

fid_example.py

Example code to show the usage of fid.py in your own Python scripts.

precalc_stats_example.py

Example code to show how to calculate and save training set statistics.

WGAN_GP

Improved WGAN (WGAN-GP) implementation forked from https://github.com/igul222/improved_wgan_training with added FID evaluation for the image model and switchable TTUR/orig settings. Lanuage model with JSD Tensorboard logging and switchable TTUR/orig settings.
