What changed
Redesigned StyleGAN normalization and training, addressing characteristic image artifacts and adding path-length regularization for more stable image generation.
Scientific scope
Redesigned StyleGAN normalization and training, addressing characteristic image artifacts and adding path-length regularization for more stable image generation. Scope limitation: StyleGAN2 improves the earlier StyleGAN architecture; it is a distinct 2020 CVPR paper, not the invention of GANs or all later StyleGAN variants.
Evidence
The retained primary-source abstract, bibliographic record and stated review scope support this provisional assessment. No independent experimental replication by WRS is claimed. StyleGAN2 improves the earlier StyleGAN architecture; it is a distinct 2020 CVPR paper, not the invention of GANs or all later StyleGAN variants.
