Table 3 Experiments - Monkey Species as true dataset

The 10 Monkey Species dataset for the teacher is found at:

https://www.kaggle.com/slothkong/10-monkey-species

For CelebA-HQ as proxy, we used the PGAN from torch.hub:

def celeba_gan():
    model = torch.hub.load('facebookresearch/pytorch_GAN_zoo:hub',
        'PGAN',
        model_name='celebAHQ-512',
        pretrained = True,
        useGPU = True
    )
    return model

For ImageNet-Cats-and-Dogs, we used the SNGAN-Projection found at:
