• Abstract: Generative adversarial network (GAN) continues to be a popular research direction due to its high generation quality. It is observed that many state-of-the-art GANs generate samples that are more similar to the training set than a holdout testing set from the same distribution, hinting some training samples are implicitly memorized in these models. This memorization behavior is unfavorable in many applications that demand the generated samples to be sufficiently distinct from known samples. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether it is possible to reduce memorization without compromising the generation quality. In this paper, we propose memorization rejection, a training scheme that rejects generated samples that are near-duplicates of training samples during training. Our scheme is simple, generic and can be directly applied to any GAN architecture. Experiments on multiple datasets and GAN models validate that memorization rejection effectively reduces training sample memorization, and in many cases does not sacrifice the generation quality. Code to reproduce the experiment results can be found at $\texttt{https://github.com/jybai/MRGAN}$.

  We analyze the text memorization behavior of large language models (LLMs) when subjected to nucleus sampling. An increase of the nucleus size reduces memorization only modestly. Even when models do not engage in "hard" memorization, they may still display "soft" memorization.

  Brain tumors in magnetic resonance imaging (MR) are difficult, time-consuming, and prone to human error. These challenges can be resolved by developing automatic brain tumor segmentation methods from MR images. Various deep-learning models based on the U-Net have been proposed for the task. These deep-learning models are trained on a dataset of tumor images and then used for segmenting the masks.

  We investigate how to post-edit a model after training so that it forgets certain kinds of samples. We provide three different algorithms for GANs that differ on how the samples to be forgotten are described. Our algorithms are capable of forgetting data while retaining high generation quality at a fraction of the cost of full re-training.

  Recent DA techniques always meet the need for diversity in augmented training samples. An augmentation strategy that has a high diversity usually introduces out-of-distribution (OOD) augmented samples. We propose ReSmooth, a framework that firstly detects OOD samples in augmented samples and then leverages them.

  Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have led to their widespread adoption for the purposes of generating high quality synthetic imagery. GANs often produce unrealistic samples which fall outside of the data manifold. We propose a novel approach to improve sample quality: altering the training dataset via instance selection before model training has taken place.

  Replay in neural networks involves training on sequential data with memorized samples, which counteracts forgetting of previous behavior caused by non-stationarity. We present a method where these auxiliary samples are generated on the fly, given only the model that is being trained for the assessed objective. Instead the implicit memory of learned samples within the assessed model itself is exploited.
