GAN (Generative Adversarial Network)
Generative Adversarial Network
Definition
A GAN is a deep learning architecture composed of two competing neural networks — a generator and a discriminator — to produce realistic synthetic data.

Häufig gestellte Fragen
What's the difference between a GAN and a diffusion model?
A GAN uses two competing networks (generator vs discriminator) and generates in a single pass. A diffusion model progressively denoises an image over multiple steps. Diffusion models dominate in 2026 for image quality, but GANs remain faster at inference.
Are GANs still used in 2026?
Yes, but in specific niches. Diffusion models replaced them for mainstream image generation, but GANs remain dominant for real-time super-resolution, video style transfer, and tabular synthetic data generation.
