A dual GAN with identity blocks and pancreas-inspired loss for renewable energy optimization by Mostafa Elbaz, Wael Said, Gamal M. Mahmoud, Hanaa Salem Marie

“…This paper introduces a novel architecture, Penca-GAN, which enhances GANs through three key modifications: (1) dual loss functions to ensure pixel integrity and promote diversity in augmented images, effectively mitigating mode collapse and improving the quality of synthetic data; (2) the integration of an identity block to stabilize training, preserving essential input features and facilitating smoother gradient flow; and (3) a pancreas-inspired metaheuristic loss function that dynamically adapts to variations in training data to maintain pixel coherence and diversity. …”
