Description

This week we explore three foundational approaches to generative modeling, i.e., autoregressive models that generate data sequentially, adversarial networks that learn through competition, and autoencoders that compress and reconstruct, examining their architectures, training dynamics, and applications.

This Week's TA: Johann Wenckstern
