## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 32/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 0, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 3428, "days_push": 1062, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
A curated catalog of named Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) variants, maintained as a TSV table with paper links and GitHub references. It tracks the proliferation of GAN research papers with creative acronyms and names.

## Use cases
- find all named GAN variants for a literature review
- search GAN papers by title or year
- track how GAN research grew over time
- find the original paper and code for a specific GAN like StyleGAN or CycleGAN
- survey generative adversarial network research before starting a project

## When to choose
- you need a comprehensive index of GAN papers and their implementations
- you are doing a survey or literature review of GAN research
- you want to check whether a GAN acronym is already taken

## When to avoid
- you need runnable GAN training code rather than a paper index
- you are looking for modern generative models like diffusion models or transformers
- you need actively maintained GAN implementations

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: maintenance
- function: machine-learning, deep-learning
- domain: machine-learning, deep-learning, artificial-intelligence
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: awesome-list, gan, generative-adversarial-networks, research-papers, curated-list
