How to Get a Better GAN (Almost) for Free: Introducing the Metropolis-Hastings GAN
Metropolis-Hastings Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) leverage the discriminator to pick better samples from the generator after ML model training is done.

Metropolis-Hastings Generative Adversarial Networks
R. Turner, J. Hung, Y. Saatci, J. Yosinski
We introduce the Metropolis-Hastings generative adversarial network (MH-GAN), which combines aspects of Markov chain Monte Carlo and GANs. The MH-GAN draws samples from the distribution implicitly defined by a GAN's discriminator-generator pair, as opposed to sampling in a standard GAN which draws samples from the distribution defined by the generator.
