While GANs have revolutionized image generation, training them can be tricky. This guide will take you through GAN training step-by-step: from how the discriminator and generator models are trained in each epoch to optimizing the minimax loss function. 

If you heard about GANs, the main idea behind them, and their main applications and you are curious about their training process and how to train them, this article is for you. 

This article is the second in a five articles series. In the coming one we will discuss how to evaluate GANs, then we will explore the popular GANs and their main applications and we will conclude this series with an end-to-end GAN project. 

Table of Contents:

  1. Introduction to GAN Training 

  2. Training the Discriminator Model

  3. Training the Generator Model

  4. Training Epochs 

  5. Optimizing GAN Minimax Function
