Inclusive GAN: Improving Data and Minority Coverage in Generative Models

Yu, Ning, Li, Ke, Zhou, Peng et al.

Understand

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have brought about rapid progress towards generating photorealistic images.

  • Yet the equitable allocation of their modeling capacity among subgroups has received less attention, which could lead to potential biases against underrepresented minorities if left uncontrolled.
  • In this work, we first formalize the problem of minority inclusion as one of data coverage, and then propose to improve data coverage by harmonizing adversarial training with reconstructive generation.
  • The experiments show that our method outperforms the existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of data coverage on both seen and unseen data.
