[MINI] Convolutional Neural Networks
CNNs are characterized by their use of a group of neurons typically referred to as a filter or kernel. In image recognition, this kernel is repeated over the entire image. In this way, CNNs may achi...

Multi-Agent Diverse Generative Adversarial Networks
Despite the success of GANs in imaging, one of its major drawbacks is the problem of 'mode collapse,' where the generator learns to produce samples with extremely low variety. To address this issue, t...
