Generative Adversarial Networks Cookbook

By: Josh Kalin

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.

In his free time, he enjoys working on cars (has owned 36 vehicles and counting), building computers, and learning new techniques in robotics and machine learning (like writing this book).

I thank my mother, father, step-mom, in-laws, grandparents, and friends who supported me in this crazy idea; also, my kids for understanding when dad's pulling his hair out over GANs. Hope one day they understand what the book is about. Special thanks to Jeremiah for listening to me drone on about this book. Finally, I’d thank my amazing wife—without her, nothing could be possible. I can’t thank her enough for pushing me to finish this book.
