Pix2Pix is a conditional image-to-image translation architecture that uses a conditional GAN objective combined with a reconstruction loss. The conditional GAN objective for observed images x, output images y and the random noise vector z is:

ℒ_(cGAN)(G, D) =𝔼_(x,y)[logD(x, y)]+ 𝔼_(x,z)[log(1 − D(x, G(x, z))]

We augment this with a reconstruction term:

ℒ_(L1)(G) = 𝔼_(x,y,z)[||y - G(x, z)||₁]

and we get the final objective as:

G^* = min_Gmax_Dℒ_(cGAN)(G, D) + λℒ_(L1)(G)

The architectures employed for the generator and discriminator closely follow DCGAN, with a few modifications:

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (132 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
