Pytorch implementatiions of the Homeworks in course CS294-158
Here you can find PyTorch implementations of a Masked Autoencoder for Distribution Estimation, PixelCNN, RealNVP and other architectures that are used in course.
For the first homework there is a PyTorch implementation of PixelCNN-MADE
That is a auto-regressive model, which mixes ideas from the two papers Pixel Recurrent Neural Networks (2016) and MADE: Masked Autoencoder for Distribution Estimation (2015) to produce colored 28x28 MNIST digits. Pixel intensities have been quantized to 2 bits (i.e. four intensities for each color channel). The dataset can be downloaded from here.
I have used 60,000 quantized 28x28 images from the colored MNIST dataset. Here's a few samples from the training set:
After 50 epochs of training, a network consisting of 12 residual blocks - see Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition (2015) - followed by a 3-layer MADE generates samples like the following:
You are very welcome to extend the code however you like. If you produce anything cool, be sure to let me know!
For the second homework we implement RealNVP coupling layers for modelling flows
Here I have used 5000 datapoints sampled from this distribution:
After 500 epochs we can sample the following face
with this fancy latent space
and density plot
We also implement RealNVP(https://arxiv.org/abs/1605.08803) to achive these results:
We implement a VAE with a gated shortcur connection(https://arxiv.org/pdf/1612.08083) and train it on the SVHN dataset.
The final results look like this:
In the 4th homework we implement the Wasserstein GAN(https://arxiv.org/abs/1704.00028) and draw inspiration from the architecture used in SN-GAN(https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.05957)
This we for 80 K iteration and the training curves and mean inception score look like the following:
And the resulting samples:
