Text Generation with Deep Variational GAN
share
Generating realistic sequences is a central task in many machine learning applications. There has been considerable recent progress on building deep generative models for sequence generation tasks. However, the issue of mode-collapsing remains a main issue for the current models. In this paper we propose a GAN-based generic framework to address the problem of mode-collapse in a principled approach. We change the standard GAN objective to maximize a variational lower-bound of the log-likelihood while minimizing the Jensen-Shanon divergence between data and model distributions. We experiment our model with text generation task and show that it can generate realistic text with high diversity.
