Abstract (arXiv)

In this work, we propose a fast and accurate method to reconstruct activations of classification and semantic segmentation networks by stitching them with a GAN generator utilizing a 1x1 convolution. We test our approach on images of animals from the AFHQ wild dataset, ImageNet1K, and real-world digital pathology scans of stained tissue samples. Our results show comparable performance to established gradient descent methods but with a processing time that is two orders of magnitude faster, making this approach promising for practical applications.
