Generative Adversarial Networks Cookbook

Overview of this book

Developing Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) is a complex task, and it is often hard to find code that is easy to understand. This book leads you through eight different examples of modern GAN implementations, including CycleGAN, simGAN, DCGAN, and 2D image to 3D model generation. Each chapter contains useful recipes to build on a common architecture in Python, TensorFlow and Keras to explore increasingly difficult GAN architectures in an easy-to-read format. The book starts by covering the different types of GAN architecture to help you understand how the model works. This book also contains intuitive recipes to help you work with use cases involving DCGAN, Pix2Pix, and so on. To understand these complex applications, you will take different real-world data sets and put them to use. By the end of this book, you will be equipped to deal with the challenges and issues that you may face while working with GAN models, thanks to easy-to-follow code solutions that you can implement right away.

Code implementation – discriminator


The discriminator's purpose is to determine whether the generated sample is real or fake—there's a balance to strike in order to make sure the discriminator is just good enough to keep the generator moving in the right direction. The discriminator class we'll use is 3D convolutions to determine whether 3D samples are real or fake.

Getting ready

The generator is now complete and we're moving on to develop the discriminator class. In the src folder, add the discriminator.py file.

How to do it...

The Discriminator class needs an initialization step, a block method, a model method, and a summary method. The following recipe...
