About training on GAN

[yangyingni]

Thank you for your work very much.I was training main_gan,and now i have three questions
1.Do i need to pretrain Generator and Discriminator firstly?
2.How can i continue before epoches i have ever trained?
3.'--pretrained_iter', type=int, default=100;
'--pretrained_sr', default='dl00DBPNLLPIRM_pretrained_50.pth';
'--load_pretrained', type=bool, default=True;
'--pretrained_D', default='dnnDBPNLLPIRM_RESNET_epoch_Discriminator_499.pth'
'--load_pretrained_D', type=bool, default=True
What's the relationship between them?
Hope to hear from you,thank you.

Same here, the GAN takes a lot of time to train (I'm talking days on google colab). It would be helpful if it was explained explicitly how to continue training from a checkpoint saved previously. All the arguments are confusing as well.
