Guess who? Multilingual approach for the automated generation of author-stylized poetry
This paper addresses the problem of stylized text generation in a
multilingual setup. A version of a language model based on a long short-term
memory (LSTM) artificial neural network with extended phonetic and semantic
embeddings is used for stylized poetry generation. The quality of the resulting
poems generated by the network is estimated through bilingual evaluation
understudy (BLEU), a survey and a new cross-entropy based metric that is
suggested for the problems of such type. The experiments show that the proposed
model consistently outperforms random sample and vanilla-LSTM baselines, humans
also tend to associate machine generated texts with the target author
Style Transfer in Text: Exploration and Evaluation
Style transfer is an important problem in natural language processing (NLP).
However, the progress in language style transfer is lagged behind other
domains, such as computer vision, mainly because of the lack of parallel data
and principle evaluation metrics. In this paper, we propose to learn style
transfer with non-parallel data. We explore two models to achieve this goal,
and the key idea behind the proposed models is to learn separate content
representations and style representations using adversarial networks. We also
propose novel evaluation metrics which measure two aspects of style transfer:
transfer strength and content preservation. We access our models and the
evaluation metrics on two tasks: paper-news title transfer, and
positive-negative review transfer. Results show that the proposed content
preservation metric is highly correlate to human judgments, and the proposed
models are able to generate sentences with higher style transfer strength and
similar content preservation score comparing to auto-encoder.Comment: To appear in AAAI-1
