IInfoGAN: Improved Information Maximizing Generative Adversarial Networks

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have achieved huge success in some unsupervised learning fields. There is no doubt that clustering takes a lot of weight in unsupervised algorithm. And in this paper, we raise the Improved Information Maximizing Generative Adversarial Networks (IInfoGAN) algorithm for learning discriminative classifiers from unlabeled data. The basis of our method is an math function that contains the Mutual Information (MI) and Cross Entropy of the observed examples and their predicted classification category distribution, thus enhancing the robustness of the classifier to adversarial generative models. Experiments show that the interpretable representation learned by IInfoGAN is competitive with the representation learned by existing unsupervised methods.
