Fréchet Inception Distance

An image-generation quality metric comparing the statistics of real and generated images.

Definition

Fréchet Inception Distance is a metric for image-generation quality that compares the distribution of generated images to a distribution of real ones. It passes both sets through a pretrained image network, summarizes each as a distribution of features, and measures the distance between them. Lower scores indicate generated images that are closer in quality and variety to real images.
