Summary

This paper describes two natural language processing based computational creativity tools to assist songwriters, originally deployed to aid songwriters participating in FAWM, a social challenge website devoted to writing songs in short period of time. The two tools described are Titular, a text synthesis algorithm for generating new song titles, and LyriCloud, which is a word-level explorer that allow users interactively select words and receive suggestions for lyrical words.

This tool makes use of a template-based approach to synthesis titles. As opposed to using hand-crafted templates, Titular learns using the following:

  • Titles in training corpus are tokenized and POS tagged
  • Open word classes are substitued with their POS tag, and close words remain in tact
  • Thresholds are set to on templates to remove junk/infrequent templates
