Why instance normalization? #13

Closed Tinyyyy closed 3 years ago

Hi, Thanks for nice work. I'm wondering why you use instance normalization instead of batch normalization? Do you have any experiments about that?

They should both work. We had some earlier experiments to compare IN&BN, and IN gave better results, but I don't have numbers to back this for now.
