Answers and explanations appear as you take the quiz.

  1. What is the purpose of StyleGAN's mapping network?
    • To classify whether an image is real or fake
    • To upsample images to higher resolution
    • To compress the final image for storage
    • To transform the latent z into a more disentangled intermediate space W
  2. In the original StyleGAN, how is style injected into the feature maps?
    • By concatenating the latent vector to each pixel
    • Through Adaptive Instance Normalization (AdaIN)
    • Via a final softmax layer
    • Using max pooling
  3. What does the synthesis network start from instead of the latent vector?
    • A learned constant tensor
    • A photograph of a real face
    • Pure white noise the same size as the output
    • An edge map
  4. What does adjusting styles at the coarse (low-resolution) layers primarily control?
    • Fine skin texture and freckles
    • Color of individual pixels only
    • High-level attributes like pose and face shape
    • Image file format
  5. What problem did StyleGAN2 fix relative to the original?
    • It added text-to-image prompting
    • It removed characteristic blob-like artifacts caused by AdaIN
    • It eliminated the need for a discriminator
    • It made training fully unsupervised for the first time
  6. What is 'style mixing' in StyleGAN?
    • Blending two datasets before training
    • Averaging the discriminator's outputs
    • Mixing audio with the generated image
    • Using different w vectors at different layers to combine attributes from two images
  7. What role do separate per-layer noise inputs play in original StyleGAN synthesis?
    • They replace the mapping network's entire style representation
    • They determine the file's compression format
    • They supply stochastic fine detail, such as varying hair strands or freckles
    • They provide the discriminator's real-image labels
  8. What visual behavior did StyleGAN3's alias-free design target?
    • Texture sticking and aliasing that make details move unnaturally as image content changes
    • The absence of a text tokenizer in original StyleGAN
    • A requirement that every output be a grayscale photograph
    • The need to store generated images as audio waveforms
