I Feel You: What makes algorithmic experience personal?

P. 1–6.

Yamshchikov I. P., Tikhonov A.

Since artificial neural networks are excelling in stylization of visual, textual and acoustic objects, we discuss the potential of such technologies in context of human-to-machine interactions in general and in an artistic context specifically. We discuss a paradigm of an uncanny-valley that was originally proposed for human-robot interaction and look at it at a new angle working with algorithms rather than with robots. We propose an exploration framework for human-algorithm interaction and illustrate basic principles of such interactions with two case studies on the verge of art and computer science. Finally, we discuss how exploration paradigm outlines the vector of further humanalgorithm collaborations.

Learning Literary Style End-to-end with Artificial Neural Networks

Ivan P. Yamshchikov, Tikhonov A., Advances in Science, Technology and Engineering Systems 2019 Vol. 4 No. 6 P. 115–125

This paper addresses the generation of stylized texts in a multilingual setup. A long short-term memory (LSTM) language model with extended phonetic and semantic embeddings is shown to capture poetic style when trained end-to-end without any expert knowledge. Phonetics seems to have a comparable contribution to the overall model performance as the information on the ...

Guess who? Multilingual Approach For The Automated Generation Of Author-Stylized Poetry

Tikhonov A., Ivan P. Yamshchikov, , in: 2018 IEEE Spoken Language Technology Workshop (SLT).: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018. P. 787–794.

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 ...

Paranoid transformer: Reading narrative of madness as computational approach to creativity

Agafonova Y., Tikhonov A., Ivan P. Yamshchikov, Future Internet 2020 Vol. 12 No. 11 Article 182

This paper revisits the receptive theory in the context of computational creativity. It presents a case study of a Paranoid Transformer—a fully autonomous text generation engine with raw output that could be read as the narrative of a mad digital persona without any additional human post-filtering. We describe technical details of the generative system, provide ...

Music generation with variational recurrent autoencoder supported by history

Ivan P. Yamshchikov, Tikhonov A., SN Applied Sciences 2020 Vol. 2 No. 12 P. 1–7

A new artificial neural network architecture that helps generating longer melodic patterns is introduced alongside with methods for post-generation filtering. The proposed approach, called variational autoencoder supported by history, is based on a recurrent highway gated network combined with a variational autoencoder. The combination of this architecture with filtering heuristics allows the generation of pseudo-live, ...
