Abstract: Generative Adversarial Networks (Gans) have attracted intense interest lately in computer vision, image generation, and simulation of financial time series data. In this talk, I will first provide a gentle review of the mathematics framework behind GANs. I will then proceed to discuss a few challenges in GANs training from an analytical perspective. I will finally report some recent progress for GANs training using a controlled SDE approach.
