Which dataset would you choose for training the reconstruction net of an imaging system? 1. Pairs of images+measurements 2. Just all raw measurements Spoiler alert: the obvious answer is incorrect - a thread 🧵

Seeing a lot of confusion regarding these two terms in GAN papers lately. Mode Collapse: When a large region of a model's input space maps to a small region around a single (often bad) sample. Mode Dropping: When modes in the data are not represented in the output of the model.

“researchers’ careers depend more on publishing results with ‘impact’ than on publishing results that are correct” This is not a revelation but it is still shocking. You can read the full @nature article about research misconduct at Duke University here nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
