Edit model card

This generative text model was trained using Andrej Karpathy's code on texts by the German-speaking poet Paul Celan. Models of this type well represent individual style.

Model was trained with size 512 and 3 layers, dropout 0.5.

Usage

The procedure for installing the required software is described by Karpathy, torch is required, the code is written in lua. Be careful, versions of libraries written many years ago are used!

th sample.lua lm_lstm_epoch46.30_1.5115.t7

Train data

Train data is non free due to copyright restrictions. The training corpus is collected from open sources on the internet.

What for?

In an era of winning Transformers, ancient RNN models seem archaic. But I see that they still work better than modern architectures with such important categories from the humanities point of view as individual style.

Dataset

There is a repository that publishes German poetic texts generated by RNN LSTM models (inclding this one) with different temperature.

Publication

There are some texts explaining the goal o these poetic experiments and their place in the history o human culture.
