Challenges and Corresponding Solutions of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs): A Survey Study

Abstract

Abstract Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are an innovative class of deep learning generative model that has been popular among academics recently. GANs are able to learn distributions on complex high-dimensional data which made it efficient in images and audio processing. Nevertheless, in the training of GANs, some major challenges exist namely mode collapse, non-convergence, and instability. In recent years, in order to overcome these challenges, researchers have proposed many variants of GANs by redesigning network architecture, changing the form of objective functions, and altering optimization algorithms. In this research, we conducted a comprehensive investigation on the progress of GANs design and optimization solutions. Finally, according to the classification method, we provided a problem-solving structure to solve conquer the GANs training challenges.
