• Authors: Emmanuel Martinez, Roman Jacome, Alejandra Hernandez-Rojas and Henry Arguello
• Abstract summary: Deep learning methods are state-of-the-art for spectral image (SI) computational tasks. GANs enable diverse augmentation by learning and sampling from the data distribution. GAN-based SI generation is challenging since the high-dimensionality nature of this kind of data hinders the convergence of the GAN training yielding to suboptimal generation. We propose a statistical regularization to control the low-dimensional representation variance for the autoencoder training and to achieve high diversity of samples generated with the GAN.

• Abstract: Deep learning methods are state-of-the-art for spectral image (SI) computational tasks. However, these methods are constrained in their performance since available datasets are limited due to the highly expensive and long acquisition time. Usually, data augmentation techniques are employed to mitigate the lack of data. Surpassing classical augmentation methods, such as geometric transformations, GANs enable diverse augmentation by learning and sampling from the data distribution. Nevertheless, GAN-based SI generation is challenging since the high-dimensionality nature of this kind of data hinders the convergence of the GAN training yielding to suboptimal generation. To surmount this limitation, we propose low-dimensional GAN (LD-GAN), where we train the GAN employing a low-dimensional representation of the {dataset} with the latent space of a pretrained autoencoder network. Thus, we generate new low-dimensional samples which are then mapped to the SI dimension with the pretrained decoder network. Besides, we propose a statistical regularization to control the low-dimensional representation variance for the autoencoder training and to achieve high diversity of samples generated with the GAN. We validate our method LD-GAN as data augmentation strategy for compressive spectral imaging, SI super-resolution, and RBG to spectral tasks with improvements varying from 0.5 to 1 [dB] in each task respectively. We perform comparisons against the non-data augmentation training, traditional DA, and with the same GAN adjusted and trained to generate the full-sized SIs.

  Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a promising distributed machine learning framework to preserve clients' privacy. Recent studies find that an attacker can invert the shared gradients and recover sensitive data against an FL system by leveraging pre-trained generative adversarial networks (GAN) as prior knowledge. We propose textbfGradient textbfInversion over textbfFeature textbfDomains (GIFD), which disassembles the GAN model and searches the feature domains of the intermediate layers.

• Lessons Learned from the Training of GANs on Artificial Datasets [0.0]
  Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have made great progress in synthesizing realistic images in recent years. GANs are prone to underfitting or overfitting, making the analysis of them difficult and constrained. We train them on artificial datasets where there are infinitely many samples and the real data distributions are simple. We find that training mixtures of GANs leads to more performance gain compared to increasing the network depth or width.

  generative adversarial networks (GANs) can generate highly realistic images, that are often indistinguishable (by humans) from real images. Most images so generated are not contained in a training dataset, suggesting potential for augmenting training sets with GAN-generated data. We leverage existing GAN models pretrained on large-scale datasets to introduce additional knowledge, following the concept of transfer learning. An extensive set of experiments is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed techniques on generation with limited data.
