No not really, this isn't generation for the sake of classification. It's generation in order to generate a dataset to train a new network that exhibits the characteristics of the network in the paper that can be used quickly and in a more general fashion.
Meaning that your assumption is that there is an optimal generalized network structure for generate a neural network as described in the paper and that as such, what is missing from the research is how to create an optimal way to generate a malformed source/target seed.
