Hafez: an Interactive Poetry Generation System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hafez is an automatic poetry generation system that integrates a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) with a Finite State Acceptor (FSA). It generates sonnets given arbitrary topics. Furthermore, Hafez enables users to revise and polish generated poems by adjusting various style configurations. Experiments demonstrate that such “polish” mechanisms consider the user’s intention and lead to a better poem. For evaluation, we build a web interface where users can rate the quality of each poem from 1 to 5 stars. We also speed up the whole system by a factor of 10, via vocabulary pruning and GPU computation, so that adequate feedback can be collected at a fast pace. Based on such feedback, the system learns to adjust its parameters to improve poetry quality.

متن کاملA chart generation system for topical metrical poetry
Several poetry generation systems that are in some way inspired or motivated by existing articles such as newspaper stories have recently appeared. However, most if not all of them employ template-based generation, which limits both the expressiveness of the system and the ability to faithfully convey the message of the source article. In this paper we present our work on a poetry generation sy...

Emotionally stirring imaginative narratives help us to make sense of the human condition, including elements of life such as the nature of tragedy, joy, and compassion. Such issues, including happiness and beauty, are seldom interpreted as having much to do with computation. This paper presents an approach to computational narrative that emphasizes meaning and imagination. This approach is base...
