What are you measuring as validation error?

Ok, I wouldn't worry about that since the reconstruction error is measured in a feature space. The scale of the feature representation may increase over time which leads to larger...

Yes, you are missing something. I haven't included the code for the conditional model. I have now made an [implementation available](https://gist.github.com/andersbll/dca876a68d278812aeaa46746919406e). I hope this is helpful. :)

In theory, yes. However, CUDArray includes only a Makefile that works on Linux/OS X. You should be able to install CUDArray without the CUDA backend - but I guess you...

Yes.

Just discard the alpha channel. This can be done from Python by replacing ``` def imread(path): return scipy.misc.imread(path).astype(dp.float_) ``` with ``` def imread(path): return scipy.misc.imread(path).astype(dp.float_)[..., :3] ```

Strange, make sure `scipy.misc.imread(path)` returns a NumPy array.

Hm, it seems to me that `scipy.misc.imread()` is returning a PIL object. If this is the case, you need fix your `scipy` installation such that it can read your images....

@rmurray2: Thank you for the insight! Another possibility is to use the Anaconda Python distribution. It usually provides working versions of Pillow/Scipy. :)
