• Abstract: The generative adversarial network (GAN) is an important model developed for high-dimensional distribution learning in recent years. However, there is a pressing need for a comprehensive method to understand its error convergence rate. In this research, we focus on studying the error convergence rate of the GAN model that is based on a class of functions encompassing the discriminator and generator neural networks. These functions are VC type with bounded envelope function under our assumptions, enabling the application of the Talagrand inequality. By employing the Talagrand inequality and Borel-Cantelli lemma, we establish a tight convergence rate for the error of GAN. This method can also be applied on existing error estimations of GAN and yields improved convergence rates. In particular, the error defined with the neural network distance is a special case error in our definition.

  We study how well generative adversarial networks learn from finite samples by analyzing the convergence rates of these models. Our analysis is based on a new inequality oracle that decomposes the estimation error of GAN into the discriminator and generator approximation errors. For generator approximation error, we show that neural network can approximately transform a low-dimensional source distribution to a high-dimensional target distribution.
