| Add shared class embeddings (ablation) | BigGAN · ImageNet 128×128 | IS: 92.98 -> 94.94 | Helped |
| Add skip-z connections to multiple generator layers (ablation) | BigGAN with shared embeddings · ImageNet 128×128 | IS: 94.94 -> 98.76 | Helped |
| Add orthogonal regularization to the generator (ablation) | BigGAN with shared embeddings and skip-z · ImageNet 128×128 | IS: 98.76 -> 99.31 | Helped |
| Use four-times-deeper BigGAN-deep architecture (ablation) | BigGAN · ImageNet at 128×128, 256×256, and 512×512 | FID: 8.7±.6 -> 5.7 ± .3 | Helped |
