Overview of this book

Advanced Deep Learning with TensorFlow 2 and Keras, Second Edition is a completely updated edition of the bestselling guide to the advanced deep learning techniques available today. Revised for TensorFlow 2.x, this edition introduces you to the practical side of deep learning with new chapters on unsupervised learning using mutual information, object detection (SSD), and semantic segmentation (FCN and PSPNet), further allowing you to create your own cutting-edge AI projects. Using Keras as an open-source deep learning library, the book features hands-on projects that show you how to create more effective AI with the most up-to-date techniques. Starting with an overview of multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and recurrent neural networks (RNNs), the book then introduces more cutting-edge techniques as you explore deep neural network architectures, including ResNet and DenseNet, and how to create autoencoders. You will then learn about GANs, and how they can unlock new levels of AI performance. Next, you’ll discover how a variational autoencoder (VAE) is implemented, and how GANs and VAEs have the generative power to synthesize data that can be extremely convincing to humans. You'll also learn to implement DRL such as Deep Q-Learning and Policy Gradient Methods, which are critical to many modern results in AI.

3. Auxiliary Classifier GAN (ACGAN)

ACGAN is similar in principle to the Conditional GAN (CGAN) that we discussed in the previous chapter. We're going to compare both CGAN and ACGAN. For both CGAN and ACGAN, the generator inputs are noise and its label. The output is a fake image belonging to the input class label. For CGAN, the inputs to the discriminator are an image (fake or real) and its label. The output is the probability that the image is real. For ACGAN, the input to the discriminator is an image, whilst the output is the probability that the image is real and its class is a label.

Figure 5.3.1 highlights the difference between CGAN and ACGAN during generator training:

Essentially, in CGAN we feed the network with side information (label). In ACGAN, we try to reconstruct the side information using an auxiliary class decoder network. ACGAN...
