Abstract: A method for training a machine learning system using conditionally independent training data includes receiving an input dataset (p(x, y, z)). A generative adversarial network, that includes a generator and a first discriminator, uses the input dataset to generate a training data (ps (xf, yf, zf)) by generating the values (xf, yf, zf). The first discriminator determines a first loss (L1) based on (xf, yf, zf) and (x, y, z). A divergence calculator modifies the training data based on a dependence measure (?). The divergence calculator includes a second discriminator and a third discriminator. Modifying the training data includes receiving a reference value ({tilde over (y)}), and computing, by the second discriminator, a second loss (L2) based on (xf, yf, zf) and (xf, {tilde over (y)}, zf). The third discriminator computes a third loss (L3) based on (yf, zf) and ({tilde over (y)}, zf). Further, a fourth loss (L4) is computed based on L2 and L3.
