  Generative models, in particular generative adversarial networks (GANs), have
received significant attention recently. A number of GAN variants have been
proposed and have been utilized in many applications. Despite large strides in
terms of theoretical progress, evaluating and comparing GANs remains a daunting
task. While several measures have been introduced, as of yet, there is no
consensus as to which measure best captures strengths and limitations of models
and should be used for fair model comparison. As in other areas of computer
vision and machine learning, it is critical to settle on one or few good
measures to steer the progress in this field. In this paper, I review and
critically discuss more than 24 quantitative and 5 qualitative measures for
evaluating generative models with a particular emphasis on GAN-derived models.
I also provide a set of 7 desiderata followed by an evaluation of whether a
given measure or a family of measures is compatible with them.
