Score-Guided Generative Adversarial Networks
We propose a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) that introduces an evaluator module using pre-trained networks. The proposed model, called score-guided GAN (ScoreGAN), is trained with an evaluation metric for GANs, i.e., the Inception score, as a rough guide for the training of the generator. By using another pre-trained network instead of the Inception network, ScoreGAN circumvents the overfitting of the Inception network in order that generated samples do not correspond to adversarial examples of the Inception network. Also, to prevent the overfitting, the evaluation metrics are employed only as an auxiliary role, while the conventional target of GANs is mainly used. Evaluated with the CIFAR-10 dataset, ScoreGAN demonstrated an Inception score of 10.36±0.15, which corresponds to state-of-the-art performance. Furthermore, to generalize the effectiveness of ScoreGAN, the model was further evaluated with another dataset, i.e., the CIFAR-100; as a result, ScoreGAN outperformed the other existing methods, where the Fréchet Inception Distance (FID) of ScoreGAN trained over the CIFAR-100 dataset was 13.98.
