1. Figures
This folder includes all the figures inside the publication, which named in "'figure 1.png', 'figure 2.png', 'figure 3.png', 'figure 4.png','figure 5.png', 'figure 6.png', 'figure 7.png', 'figure 8.png'". The graphics denoted as SI figure 1 to SI figure 6 cited within the supplementary materials of the scholarly publication, are accessible under the file name "'SI figure 1.png', 'SI figure 2.png', 'SI figure 3.png', 'SI figure 4.png', 'SI figure 5.png', 'SI figure 6.png'".

2. Numerical data
This folder includes two sub-folders named in "'SM Table 1', 'SM Table 2'", which including each corresponding .csv file for the tables in the supplementary file.


(a) In 'SM Table 1', there is one CSV file in the folder, with the same name of the folder.
	- The shape of 'SM Table 1' is (61,4), containing 3 columns, which indicate the number of layer used in generator, image layer, image properties and specification of the layer.

(b) In 'SM Table 2', there is one CSV file in the folder, with the same name of the folder.
	- The shape of 'SM Table 2' is (13,4), containing 3 columns, which indicate the number of layer used in discriminator, image layer, image properties and specification of the layer.
