Imagine you want to run a marathon which is about 26 miles (~40 km). You have to practice or "train" in order to run that distance. Similarly, the GAN needs to be "trained" --- practice with hundreds of pictures-- in order to properly work and create images.

In this particular instance, the StackGAN is broken up into two parts: Stage 1 and Stage 2. Each part needs to be trained in order for the whole StackGAN to work properly
