Thai song lyrics generator

An automatic lyrics generator using Markov chains

Overview

The generator (built from Markov chains) consists of three MC models, namely Intro, Body, and Outro generators. The models learn from their corresponding parts of songs, and generate only the part of lyrics they are assigned to. Parts of the lyrics from each model are combined at the end to make a complete lyrics.

Dependencies

• Deepcut (required Keras with Tensorflow backend)
• Numpy
• BeautifulSoup4

File descriptions

• song_downloader.py - A script for downloading (scraping) lyrics from Siamzone.com
• preprocessor.py - A script for preprocessing the downloaded lyrics
• song_generator.py - A lyrics generator.

Note:

1. Make sure to run the above files in order. (in case of starting from scratch)
2. Each file requires path and parameter set up before start running. (in-file setup, no command line argument parsing)
3. Follow the description at each file's header on how to setup and technical details.

Pre-trained model

Pre-trained model is a json file containing a dictionary that serves as state transition table for Chain class in song_generator.py. The model is located in \pretrained.

Always set use_pretrained variable in song_generator.py True if you want to use this option.
