Latent Code and Text-based Generative Adversarial Networks for Soft-text Generation (N19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Text generation with generative adversarial networks (GANs) can be divided into text-based and code-based categories depending on the type of signals used for discrimination. |
| Approach: | They propose a text-based approach to exploit generative adversarial networks (GANs) by using autoencoders to provide a continuous representation of sentences, which they will refer to as soft-text, and hybrid latent code and text-oriented approaches with one or more discriminators. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms the traditional GAN-based methods on two well-known datasets. |
