The main drawback is then you&amp;#x27;ve lost the ability to work with small data. The other drawback is the computational cost of the maxent model on top of it. So you get both the best and the worst of both halves. So: input --DNN--&amp;gt; feature vector --minimax_entropy_optimisation--&amp;gt; maxent model --sampling/inference--&amp;gt; output But minimax entropy learning is just learning a model that matches statistics of a set of features (filters). If you just want to draw a single sample from that model or the maximum…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1505.07376/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

It would be interesting to see what was actually fed into the generating system. That would be a piece of art truly speaking magnitudes.
