A transformer-based algorithmic composer of two-track piano pieces

PAUL-2

This repository contains the practical implementation of our work PAUL-2. PAUL-2 is a transformer based algorithmic composer utilising the enhancements made by the Music Transformer.

PAUL-2 is capable of composing two-track piano pieces. The distinguishing feature of the composer is its ability to compose pieces based on a ''difficulty'' parameter, defining how difficulty an output piece should be to play for a human pianist.

We refer to the full thesis for more information on PAUL-2.

In 2023 we published a paper on our work at the 22nd International conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence (AIxIA).

Demo Songs in MIDI or MP3 Format?

Hi there, looks like a very interesting thesis, just started to read it. I didn't find output files of your algorithmic composer so far; could you please provide some links to MIDI or MP3 files (e.g. corresponding to figures 4.9ff)? Thanks.
