Everybody Compose: Deep Beats To Music
Conghao Shen Violet Z. Yao Yixin Liu
This project presents a deep learning approach to generate monophonic
melodies based on input beats, allowing even amateurs to create their own music
compositions. Three effective methods - LSTM with Full Attention, LSTM with
Local Attention, and Transformer with Relative Position Representation - are
proposed for this novel task, providing great variation, harmony, and structure
in the generated music. This project allows anyone to compose their own music
by tapping their keyboards or ``recoloring'' beat sequences from existing
works.
