Recent work on conditional generative adversarial networks has shown that learning complex, high-dimensional distributions over natural images is within reach. While the latest models are able to generate high-fidelity, diverse natural images at high resolution, they rely on a vast quantity of labeled data. In this work we demonstrate how one can benefit from recent work on self- and semi-supervised learning to outperform the state of the art on both unsupervised ImageNet synthesis, as well as in the conditional setting. In particular, the proposed approach is able to match the sample quality (as measured by FID) of the current state-of-the-art conditional model BigGAN on ImageNet using only 10% of the labels and outperform it using 20% of the labels.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.02271v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/1903.02271v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"high-fidelity-image-generation-with-fewer","repo_url":"https://github.com/google/compare_gan","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"tf","reach":{"status":"ok","spdx":"Apache-2.0"}}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"conditional-image-generation","task_name":"Conditional Image Generation"},{"task_slug":"image-generation","task_name":"Image Generation"},{"task_slug":"high","task_name":"Vocal Bursts Intensity Prediction"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"1x1-convolution","method_name":"1x1 Convolution"},{"method_slug":"adam","method_name":"Adam"},{"method_slug":"batch-normalization","method_name":"Batch Normalization"},{"method_slug":"biggan","method_name":"BigGAN"},{"method_slug":"conditional-batch-normalization","method_name":"Conditional Batch Normalization"},{"method_slug":"convolution","method_name":"Convolution"},{"method_slug":"dense-connections","method_name":"Dense Connections"},{"method_slug":"early-stopping","method_name":"Early Stopping"},{"method_slug":"feedforward-network","method_name":"Feedforward Network"},{"method_slug":"gan-hinge-loss","method_name":"GAN Hinge Loss"},{"method_slug":"linear-layer","method_name":"Linear Layer"},{"method_slug":"non-local-block","method_name":"Non-Local Block"},{"method_slug":"non-local-operation","method_name":"Non-Local Operation"},{"method_slug":"off-diagonal-orthogonal-regularization","method_name":"Off-Diagonal Orthogonal Regularization"},{"method_slug":"projection-discriminator","method_name":"Projection Discriminator"},{"method_slug":"relu","method_name":"ReLU"},{"method_slug":"residual-block","method_name":"Residual Block"},{"method_slug":"residual-connection","method_name":"Residual Connection"},{"method_slug":"sagan","method_name":"SAGAN"},{"method_slug":"softmax","method_name":"Softmax"},{"method_slug":"spectral-normalization","method_name":"Spectral Normalization"},{"method_slug":"ttur","method_name":"TTUR"},{"method_slug":"truncation-trick","method_name":"Truncation Trick"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[{"leaderboard":"/sota/conditional-image-generation-on-imagenet","task":"Conditional Image Generation","dataset":"ImageNet 128x128","model":"S3 GAN","rank_in_archive_order":10,"of":22,"metrics":{"FID":"7.7","Inception score":"83.1"},"uses_additional_data":false}],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1903.02271","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
