SeqGAN

Requirements:

  • Tensorflow r1.0.1
  • Python 2.7
  • CUDA 7.5+ (For GPU)

Introduction

Apply Generative Adversarial Nets to generating sequences of discrete tokens.

The illustration of SeqGAN. Left: D is trained over the real data and the generated data by G. Right: G is trained by policy gradient where the final reward signal is provided by D and is passed back to the intermediate action value via Monte Carlo search.

The research paper SeqGAN: Sequence Generative Adversarial Nets with Policy Gradient has been accepted at the Thirty-First AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-17).

We provide example codes to repeat the synthetic data experiments with oracle evaluation mechanisms. To run the experiment with default parameters:

$ python sequence_gan.py

You can change the all the parameters in sequence_gan.py.

The experiment has two stages. In the first stage, use the positive data provided by the oracle model and Maximum Likelihood Estimation to perform supervise learning. In the second stage, use adversarial training to improve the generator.

After running the experiments, you could get the negative log-likelihodd performance saved in save/experiment-log.txt like:
