Survey of GANs and autoencoders, addressing mode collapse and likelihood issues.
Any autoencoder network can be turned into a generative model by imposing an arbitrary prior distribution on its hidden code vector. Variational Autoencoder (VAE) [2] uses a KL divergence penalty to impose the prior, whereas Adversarial Autoencoder (AAE) [1] uses {\it generative adversarial networks} GAN [3]. GAN trade…

Generative models with an encoding component such as autoencoders currently receive great interest.

To overcome this problem, by-design reversible…

The problem of learning a manifold structure on a dataset is framed in terms of a generative model, to which we use ideas behind autoencoders (namely adversarial/Wasserstein autoencoders) to fit deep neural networks.
