Abstract

The goal of neural reprogramming is to alter the functionality of a fixed neural network just by preprocessing the input. In this work, we show that Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) can be reprogrammed by sha** the input noise distribution. One application of our algorithm is to convert an unconditional GAN to a conditional GAN. We also empirically study the applicability, feasibility, and limitation of GAN reprogramming.
