Changelog

v0.1.0 (20/04/2021)

Highlights

• MMGeneration is released.

Main Features

• High-quality Training Performance: We currently support training on Unconditional GANs (DCGAN, WGAN-GP, PGGAN, StyleGANV1, StyleGANV2, Positional Encoding in GANs), Internal GANs (SinGAN), and Image Translation Models (Pix2Pix, CycleGAN). Support for conditional models will come soon.

• Powerful Application Toolkit: A plentiful toolkit containing multiple applications in GANs is provided to users. GAN interpolation, GAN projection, and GAN manipulations are integrated into our framework. It’s time to play with your GANs!

• Efficient Distributed Training for Generative Models: For the highly dynamic training in generative models, we adopt a new way to train dynamic models with MMDDP.

• New Modular Design for Flexible Combination: A new design for complex loss modules is proposed for customizing the links between modules, which can achieve flexible combination among different modules.
