• Abstract: In this paper we propose a novel approach for stabilizing the training process of Generative Adversarial Networks as well as alleviating the mode collapse problem. The main idea is to introduce a regularization term that we call intervention loss into the objective. We refer to the resulting generative model as Intervention Generative Adversarial Networks (IVGAN). By perturbing the latent representations of real images obtained from an auxiliary encoder network with Gaussian invariant interventions and penalizing the dissimilarity of the distributions of the resulting generated images, the intervention loss provides more informative gradient for the generator, significantly improving GAN's training stability. We demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our methods via solid theoretical analysis and thorough evaluation on standard real-world datasets as well as the stacked MNIST dataset.

  Anomaly detection (AD) is increasingly recognized as a key component for ensuring the resilience of future communication systems. This work considers AD in network flows using incomplete measurements. We propose a novel block-successive convex approximation algorithm based on a regularized model-fitting objective. Inspired by Bayesian approaches, we extend the model architecture to perform online adaptation to per-flow and per-time-step statistics.

At inference, the learned policy serves as the generator for iterative sampling, and the learned energy serves as a trajectory-level measure for evaluating sample quality.

  Two prominent generative models, Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and Variational AutoEncoders (VAEs) GANs suffer from unstable optimization, while VAEs are prone to posterior collapse and over-smoothed generations. We present a conditional denoising diffusion model, which includes a sequence encoder, a cross-attentive denoising decoder, and a step-wise diffuser.

  Generative adversarial networks (GANs) typically require ample data for training in order to synthesize high-fidelity images.
