Implementing this paper by Alex Graves using pytorch.
Use train.py script for training the models.
$ python train.py -h
usage: train.py [-h] [--uncond] [--batch_size BATCH_SIZE] [--resume RESUME]
[--logdir LOGDIR] [--n_data N_DATA]
Train a handwriting generation model
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--uncond If want to train the unconditional model
--batch_size BATCH_SIZE
Batch size for training
--resume RESUME model path from which to resume training
--logdir LOGDIR Directory to be used for logging
--n_data N_DATA count of strokes to take from data
Use generate.py for generating from models using saved state_dict files.
$ python generate.py -h
usage: generate.py [-h] [--uncond] --model_path MODEL_PATH
[--text TEXT [TEXT ...]] [--sample_length SAMPLE_LENGTH]
[--num_sample NUM_SAMPLE] [--seed SEED]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--uncond If want to generate using the unconditional model.
Default is conditional
--model_path MODEL_PATH
path to the saved sate_dict file to be used for
generating samples
--text TEXT [TEXT ...]
text for which handwriting to be synthesized (for
conditional model)
--sample_length SAMPLE_LENGTH
sample length for unconditional model
--num_sample NUM_SAMPLE
number of samples to generate from unconditional model
--seed SEED
Example command for generating from the saved best conditional model:
python generate.py --model_path data/model_files/handwriting_cond_best.pt --text "Hello world" "Welcome to Lyrebird"Example command for generating from the saved best unconditional model:
python generate.py --uncond --model_path data/model_files/handwriting_uncond_best.pt --sample_length 600 --num_sample 4"Hello World"
"Welcome to Lyrebird"
"Welcome to Lyrebird"
Random sample 1
Random sample 2
Random sample 3
Random sample 4
Implementation of stopping criteria for generation from conditional is not so robust and this may cause model to return empty stroke sequence. In this case just try with a different seed or with higher bias value and it will work fine.
