Model suitability coefficients based on generative adversarial networks and activation maps

Abstract

Systems/techniques that facilitate generation of model suitability coefficients are provided. In various embodiments, a system can access a model trained on a training dataset, and the system can compute a coefficient indicating whether the model is suitable for deployment on a target dataset, based on analyzing activation maps associated with the model. In some cases, the system can: train a generative adversarial network (GAN) to learn a distribution of training activation maps produced by the model; generate a set of target activation maps of the model, by feeding samples from the target dataset to the model; cause a generator of the GAN to generate synthetic training activation maps from the learned distribution of training activation maps; iteratively perturb inputs of the generator until distances between the synthetic training activation maps and the target activation maps are minimized; and aggregate the minimized distances to form the coefficient.
