Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks
Role in this project:ML Engineer
ML EngineerContributions:14 commits, 6 PRs, 11 pushes in 5 months
Contributions summary:Alec appears to be primarily focused on developing and training deep learning models, specifically Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Their commits involve implementing training scripts for conditional DCGANs on MNIST and unconditional DCGANs for face generation. They demonstrate an understanding of the underlying architecture and training procedures for these models. Further contributions include loading and using pretrained GAN models, along with analysis scripts for semi-supervised learning experiments.
