Google Research: Poetic Machine Translation
- 8ren 16y agoThis is awesome, but no demo webapp.
- trop 16y agoThis gives me the bad feeling of when SIGGRAPH used to have papers on "artistic" filters (instant impressionism! instant woodcut!) by people without a feel for the expressiveness of the medium which they are simulating. Such work sometimes seems like subtle satire. OTOH, I don't want to give the good Googlers short shrift, and it is certainly welcome to consider the meter (and maybe rhyme) of generated text.
- abecedarius 16y agoAnother step towards Trurl's electronic bard! If you'd like to see some unrelated but available and open-source code to generate rhyming metric verse: http://github.com/darius/languagetoys http://github.com/darius/languagetoys. Unlike the paper, this doesn't even try to preserve sense -- it just uses n-gram statistics.
