Usage

First download your data and put it into the ./data folder.

To train a new model, first create a config script similar to the ones provided in the ./configs folder. You can then train you model using

python train.py PATH_TO_CONFIG

To compute the inception score for your model and generate samples, use

python test.py PATH_TO_CONIFG

Finally, you can create nice latent space interpolations using

python interpolate.py PATH_TO_CONFIG

or

python interpolate_class.py PATH_TO_CONFIG

Notes

• For the results presented in the paper, we did not use a moving average over the weights. However, using a moving average helps to reduce noise and we therefore recommend its usage. Indeed, we found that using a moving average leads to much better inception scores on Imagenet.
