Generating large scale images using GANs

Generative Adversarial Networks have been used for the task of image generation and has achieved impressive results. There is always a challenge to train networks that generate large scale images since they tend to be huge and training needs a lot of data. In this work, we tackle this problem by div...

description Generative Adversarial Networks have been used for the task of image generation and has achieved impressive results. There is always a challenge to train networks that generate large scale images since they tend to be huge and training needs a lot of data. In this work, we tackle this problem by dividing it into two smaller parts. We first generate small scale images using GANs then use a super resolution network to enlarge the generated images resulting in large scale images. Using a super resolution network helps in adding more details to the image which results in a better quality image. This technique has been tested with a small amount of data and obtained better inception scores over the baseline GAN.
