      GANs work when both agents are simultaneously updated. If one agent is fixed and other updated, performance worsens. Hence, GANs don't converge to Nash. Instead, implicit regularization from simultaneous updates is key to good performance.pic.twitter.com/jIEwOpGGwg

      Implicit competitive regularization in GANs encourages discriminators to learn slowly. It is more effective than explicit gradient penalties. Competitive gradient descent further strengthens this implicit reg. by using mixed Hessian to account for interaction among playerspic.twitter.com/t5yXDYYhMK

      Florian Schafer and I have a #NeurIPS2019 poster #195 today from 10:45 to 12:45. GAN training is unstable + mode collapse. How to fix optimization in GANs? We propose competitive gradient descent: each update is a Nash equilibrium of a local game. Blog: https://f-t-s.github.io/projects/cgd/  pic.twitter.com/RinSTyKiyg

      The interpretation behind second order derivatives is really interesting in your work and the results are amazing. An optimization question: isn't CGD much slower than GD per iteration? (As I got, you compute D_{xy} which is really slow? Also, what is the case in Neural Nets?

      CGD is only twice cost of GD when mixed-mode differentiation is available, as in #JAX Further, with conjugate gradients, iteration reduces to GD when there is no instability.https://twitter.com/AnimaAnandkumar/status/1219133562651176965?s=20 …

      We used JAX for competitive gradient descent (CGD) with Hessian-vector products. Mixed mode differentiation in JAX makes this efficient (just twice cost of backprop). We used CGD for training GANs and for constrained problems in RL. This library will be very useful @pierrelux https://twitter.com/hardmaru/status/1219088493583880192 …
