Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are modern methods to learn the underlying distribution of a data set. GANs have been widely used in sample synthesis, de-noising, domain transfer, etc. GANs, however, are designed in a model-free…

Network models are useful tools for modelling complex associations. If a Gaussian graphical model is assumed, conditional independence is determined by the non-zero entries of the inverse covariance (precision) matrix of the data. The…
