In many domains of computer vision, generative adversarial networks (GANs) have achieved great success, among which the fam- ily of Wasserstein GANs (WGANs) is considered to be state-of-the-art due to the theoretical contributions and competitive qualitative performance

Project description

WassersteinGAN_DIV-PyTorch

Update (Feb 22, 2020)

The mnist and fmnist models are now available. Their usage is identical to the other models:

from wgandiv_pytorch import Generator
model = Generator.from_pretrained('g-mnist') 

Overview

This repository contains an op-for-op PyTorch reimplementation of Wasserstein Divergence for GANs.

The goal of this implementation is to be simple, highly extensible, and easy to integrate into your own projects. This implementation is a work in progress -- new features are currently being implemented.

At the moment, you can easily:

  • Load pretrained Generate models
  • Use Generate models for extended dataset

Upcoming features: In the next few days, you will be able to:

  • Quickly finetune an Generate on your own dataset
  • Export Generate models for production

About Wasserstein GAN DIV

If you're new to Wasserstein GAN DIV, here's an abstract straight from the paper:

In many domains of computer vision, generative adversarial networks (GANs) have achieved great success, among which the fam- ily of Wasserstein GANs (WGANs) is considered to be state-of-the-art due to the theoretical contributions and competitive qualitative performance. However, it is very challenging to approximate the k-Lipschitz constraint required by the Wasserstein-1 metric (W-met). In this paper, we propose a novel Wasserstein divergence (W-div), which is a relaxed version of W-met and does not require the k-Lipschitz constraint.As a concrete application, we introduce a Wasserstein divergence objective for GANs (WGAN-div), which can faithfully approximate W-div through optimization. Under various settings, including progressive growing training, we demonstrate the stability of the proposed WGAN-div owing to its theoretical and practical advantages over WGANs. Also, we study the quantitative and visual performance of WGAN-div on standard image synthesis benchmarks, showing the superior performance of WGAN-div compared to the state-of-the-art methods.

Model Description

We have two networks, G (Generator) and D (Discriminator).The Generator is a network for generating images. It receives a random noise z and generates images from this noise, which is called G(z).Discriminator is a discriminant network that discriminates whether an image is real. The input is x, x is a picture, and the output is D of x is the probability that x is a real picture, and if it's 1, it's 100% real, and if it's 0, it's not real.

Installation

Install from pypi:

pip install wgandiv_pytorch

Install from source:

git clone https://github.com/Lornatang/WassersteinGAN_DIV-PyTorch.git
cd WassersteinGAN_DIV-PyTorch
pip install -e .

Usage

Loading pretrained models

Load an Wasserstein GAN DIV:

from wgandiv_pytorch import Generator
model = Generator.from_name("g-mnist")

Load a pretrained Wasserstein GAN DIV:

from wgandiv_pytorch import Generator
model = Generator.from_pretrained("g-mnist")

Example: Extended dataset

As mentioned in the example, if you load the pre-trained weights of the MNIST dataset, it will create a new imgs directory and generate 64 random images in the imgs directory.

import os
import torch
import torchvision.utils as vutils
from wgandiv_pytorch import Generator

device = torch.device("cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")

model = Generator.from_pretrained("g-mnist")
model.to(device)
# switch to evaluate mode
model.eval()

try:
    os.makedirs("./imgs")
except OSError:
    pass

with torch.no_grad():
    for i in range(64):
        noise = torch.randn(64, 100, device=device)
        fake = model(noise)
        vutils.save_image(fake.detach(), f"./imgs/fake_{i:04d}.png", normalize=True)
    print("The fake image has been generated!")

Example: Visual

cd $REPO$/framework
sh start.sh

Then open the browser and type in the browser address http://127.0.0.1:10004/. Enjoy it.

If you find a bug, create a GitHub issue, or even better, submit a pull request. Similarly, if you have questions, simply post them as GitHub issues.

I look forward to seeing what the community does with these models!
