Multi-Adversarial Variational Autoencoder Networks
The unsupervised training of GANs and VAEs has enabled them to generate realistic images mimicking real-world distributions and perform image-based unsupervised clustering or semi-supervised classification. Combining the power of these two generative models, we introduce Multi-Adversarial Variational autoEncoder Networks (MAVENs), a novel network architecture that incorporates an ensemble of discriminators in a VAE-GAN network, with simultaneous adversarial learning and variational inference. We apply MAVENs to the generation of synthetic images and propose a new distribution measure to quantify the quality of the generated images. Our experimental results using datasets from the computer vision and medical imaging domains---Street View House Numbers, CIFAR-10, and Chest X-Ray datasets---demonstrate competitive performance against state-of-the-art semi-supervised models both in image generation and classification tasks.

Adversarial Variational Bayes: Unifying Variational Autoencoders and Generative Adversarial Networks
Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) are expressive latent variable models that can be used to learn complex probability distributions from training data. However, the quality of the resulting model crucially relies on the ex…
Adversarial Attacks on Variational Autoencoders
Adversarial attacks are malicious inputs that derail machine-learning models. We propose a scheme to attack autoencoders, as well as a quantitative evaluation framework that correlates well with the qualitative assessmen…
