  "abstract": "We propose a novel method for training a conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN) without the use of training data, called zero-shot learning of a CGAN (ZS-CGAN). Zero-shot learning of a conditional generator only needs a pre-trained discriminative (classification) model and does not need any training data. In particular, the conditional generator is trained to produce labeled synthetic samples whose characteristics mimic the original training data by using the statistics stored in the batch normalization layers of the pre-trained model. We show the usefulness of ZS-CGAN in data-free quantization of deep neural networks. We achieved the state-of-the-art data-free network quantization of the ResNet and MobileNet classification models trained on the ImageNet dataset. Data-free quantization using ZS-CGAN showed a minimal loss in accuracy compared to that obtained by conventional data-dependent quantization.",
