• A Closer Look at the Optimization Landscapes of Generative Adversarial Networks (2019, background): “A mechanical analogy for this dynamic stability phenomenon is a ball in a rotating saddle—even though the gravity pushes the ball to escape the saddle, a quick enough rotation of the saddle would trap the ball at the center (see (Thompson et al., 2002) for more details).”
