 Abstract: Deep generative models such as Generative Ad- versarial Networks (GANs) and Variational Auto- Encoders (VAEs) are important tools to capture and investigate the properties of complex empiri- cal data. However, the complexity of their inner elements makes their functioning challenging to interpret and modify. In this respect, these archi- tectures behave as black box models. In order to better understand the function of such network, we analyze the modularity of these system by quantifying the disentanglement of their intrinsic parameters. This concept relates to a notion of invariance to transformations of internal variables of the generative model, recently introduced in the field of causality. Our experiments on generation of human faces with VAEs supports that modu- larity between weights distributed over layers of generator architecture is achieved to some degree, and can be used to understand better the function- ing of these architectures. Finally, we show that modularity can be enhanced during optimization.
