| Abstract: | In this paper, we propose a hybrid model aiming to map the input noise vector to the label of the generated image by the generative adversarial network (GAN). This model mainly consists of a pre-trained deep convolution generative adversarial network (DCGAN) and a classifier. By using the model, we visualize the distribution of two-dimensional input noise, leading to a specific type of the generated image after each training epoch of GAN. The visualization reveals the distribution feature of the input noise vector and the performance of the generator. With this feature, we try to build a guided generator (GG) with the ability to produce a fake image we need. Two methods are proposed to build GG. One is the most significant noise (MSN) method, and the other utilizes labeled noise. The MSN method can generate images precisely but with less variations. In contrast, the labeled noise method has more variations but is slightly less stable. Finally, we propose a criterion to measure the performance of the generator, which can be used as a loss function to effectively train the network. |
