I've been observing the Pix2Pix Paper - Image to Image Translation with Conditional Adversarial Networks and wondered on formulas. For example, the objective of the CGAN is: enter image description here,

What does this E with "double line" stands for?

In the context above it means you run over all the pairs of x, y and average the values.
