| Abstract | Since generative adversarial networks (GANs) were proposed in 2014, mode collapse has been a problem that affects many researchers when training GANs. With the reconstruction loss of an autoencoder, conditional adversarial autoencoder (CAAE) is free from mode collapse. However, its reconstruction loss will bring a saturation problem, in which the encoder maps every input image into just one latent variable. Combining the CAAE with a boundary equilibrium generative adversarial network, we propose a boundary equilibrium conditional autoencoder (BECAE) focusing on the face aging task. Our model is the first GANs that renders images through a discriminator. We also introduce some statistics to measure the level of the saturation problem. The results show that the BECAE has successfully solved the saturation problem and can generate face images of the same quality as the images generated by the CAAE. |
