NOTE: This is currently a work-in-progress.
Implementation of a model for Handwriting Synthesis using a Long Short-Term Memory recurrent neural networks in PyTorch.
Based on the Handwriting Synthesis section of Generating Sequences With Recurrent Neural Networks by Alex Graves.
The dataset used to train this neural network is the IAM On-Line Handwriting Database. In order to train this network you have to register then download the following files:
Put both of them inside the data directory.
Create virtual environment and install packages:
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .Then execute the following to train the model:
python -m handwriting_generatorSee the main script's help text for more information:
python -m handwriting_generator --help
