We proceed with the recipe as follows:

1. Clone the code from Github:

git clone https://github.com/carpedm20/DCGAN-tensorflow

2. Download the dataset with the following:

python download.py mnist celebA

3. To train a model with the downloaded dataset, use the following:

python main.py --dataset celebA --input_height=108 --train --crop

4. To test it with an existing model, use the following:

python main.py --dataset celebA --input_height=108 --crop

5. Alternatively, you can use your own dataset by doing the following:

$ mkdir data/DATASET_NAME
 ... add images to data/DATASET_NAME ...
 $ python main.py --dataset DATASET_NAME --train
 $ python main.py --dataset DATASET_NAME
 $ # example
 $ python main.py --dataset=eyes --input_fname_pattern="*_cropped.png" --train
