QiuNiu: A Chinese Lyrics Generation System with Passage-Level Input (2022.acl-demo)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing systems based on attributes or keywords render lyrics generation very limited . previous studies focused on generating lyrics based only on attributes and keywords . |
| Approach: | They propose to use Chinese passage-level text as input for lyrics generation . they initialize parameters with custom pretrained Chinese GPT-2 model and adopt a two-step process to fine-tune the model for better alignment between passage- level text and lyrics. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system is conditioned on passage-level text rather than attributes or keywords, rendering limited control over the content of the lyrics. |
