Version 2023-08-15, 26.2.2: minimization vs maximization of the Jensen-Shannon divergence

26.2.2 Density ratio estimation using binary classifiers:
The authors described V as "minimization of the Jensen-Shannon divergence". However, they refer to eq. 26.10 which optimizes the objective with respect to the parameters of the critic/discriminator. Therefore it should be maximization of the JS divergence.

fixed, thx
