This is a checkpoint of a set of long tests with reduced-complexity networks. Some takeaways:
1) A full GAN using the resnet discriminator does appear to converge, but the quality is capped.
2) Likewise, a combination GAN/feature loss does not converge. The feature loss is optimized but
the model appears unable to fight the discriminator, so the G-loss steadily increases.
Going forwards, I want to try some bigger models. In particular, I want to change the generator
to increase complexity and capacity. I also want to add skip connections between the
disc and generator.
