McGan: Mean and Covariance Feature Matching

Random Features for GANs.

McGan: Mean and Covariance Feature Matching GAN by Youssef Mroueh, Tom Sercu, Vaibhava Goel

We introduce new families of Integral Probability Metrics (IPM) for training Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN). Our IPMs are based on matching statistics of distributions embedded in a finite dimensional feature space. Mean and covariance feature matching IPMs allow for stable training of GANs, which we will call McGan. McGan minimizes a meaningful loss between distributions.
