that the tunes all have a distinctive kind of name. It’s hard to define what
makes a tune name sound Irish, only that “Boil that Cabbage Down” doesn’t sound
Irish, whereas “Whip the Mustard”

based on a database of about 30,000 examples, and although the network has
managed to produce identifiable recipes, and even sometimes sort sweet from
savory, it hasn’t actually managed to produce any
In a previous experiment

a neural network trained on the complete works of H. P. Lovecraft finish phrases
from cookbook recipes. Now, I tried it the other way around, in which I gave
phrases from Lovecraftian horror to an innocent neural
I’ve been playing around with char-rnn, an open-source torch add-on for
