Generative Adversarial Networks with Limited Data: A Survey and Benchmarking
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have shown impressive results in various image synthesis tasks. Vast studies have demonstrated that GANs are more powerful in feature and expression learning compared to other generative models and their latent space encodes rich semantic information. However, the tremendous performance of GANs heavily relies on the access to large-scale training data and deteriorates rapidly when the amount of data is limited. This paper aims to provide an overview of GANs, its variants and applications in various vision tasks, focusing on addressing the limited data issue. We analyze state-of-the-art GANs in limited data regime with designed experiments, along with presenting various methods attempt to tackle this problem from different perspectives. Finally, we further elaborate on remaining challenges and trends for future research.
