Generative Adversarial Networks: Dynamics

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) was one of the first Machine Learning algorithms to be able to generate remarkably realistic synthetic images. In this presentation, we delve into the mechanics of the GAN algorithm and its profound relationship with optimal transport theory. Through a detailed exploration, we illuminate how GAN approximates a system of PDE, particularly evident in shallow network architectures. Furthermore, we investigate known pathological behaviors such as mode collapse and failure to converge, and elucidate their connections to the underlying PDE framework through an illustrative example.
