This course is an introduction to Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and a practical step-by-step tutorial on making your own with PyTorch. Through this course, you will learn how to build GANs with industry-standard tools.

In the first section, you will dive into PyTorch and refresh your understanding of neural networks by building a simple image classifier. In the second section of this course, you will explore the idea of adversarial training and build progressively more sophisticated GANs; first by learning a simple 1010 pattern, then monochrome images of handwritten digits, and finally full-color images of faces.

The third, and last section, extends the core GAN concept, applying it to convolutional neural networks, and developing a conditional GAN for generating data of the desired class.

By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of how to build GANs for your machine learning projects.

Make Your First GAN Using PyTorch

- **GPUs** contain many **compute cores for performing certain calculations** in a highly parallel way. Originally designed to accelerate computer graphics, they are increasingly used to accelerate machine learning calculations. 

- **CUDA** is **NVIDIA’s programming framework** for GPU accelerated computation. PyTorch makes it very easy to take advantage of CUDA without significantly changing coding style.

- On **synthetic benchmarks**, such as matrix multiplication, we can see a **GPU outperform a CPU** by a factor of over 150. 

- **GPUs can be slower than CPUs at individual calculations**. There is also a cost of transferring data between the CPU and GPU. If the **data isn’t wide enough to distribute over many cores**, there may be little or no benefit to using a GPU.
