<Aaron Courville> coauthored <Deep Learning by Ian Goodfellow and others> with <Ian Goodfellow> and <Yoshua Bengio>. The book develops the mathematical and statistical foundations of learning with multilayer representations, including <mathematical optimization>[optimization], <regularization> and generative models.<Deep Learning by Ian Goodfellow and others>[Chapters5–8 and PartIII]{ref}
He also coauthored the 2014 <generative adversarial network> paper. Its generator and discriminator are trained against one another, connecting generative modelling with a <game theory>[two-player optimization problem].<Generative Adversarial Nets by Ian Goodfellow and others>[byline and abstract]{ref} The construction specifies a <loss function>[training objective]; stable <mathematical optimization>[optimization] and useful generated samples require additional analysis and empirical evaluation.
