Training

NOTE: This is training from scratch (sorry for confusing you).

python finetune.py

After training, please choose which checkpoint you want to try and change the checkpoint names you choose into "model".

• "model-xxx-y.zzz.data-00000-of-00001" → "model.data-00000-of-00001"
• "model-xxx-y.zzz.index" → "model.index"
• "model-xxx-y.zzz.meta" → "model.meta"

Inference

After changing the phrase configuration in the main.py as necessary, run it.

python main.py

"from_scratch.midi" will be generated in the "result" folder.
