Inspiration

How creativity works? For centuries people were worshipping artists who could make original pieces of art. We are here interested in what it takes to learn to compose music, especially as good as great composers as such as Mozart, Schuman or Beethoven.

What it does

It takes as an input part of the music piece in MIDI format and continues the melody, outputting MIDI file

How we built it

We used python and Keras.io neural network library to build recurrent neural networks and learn how to compose music on some given samples.

Challenges we ran into

AWS challenge, main, team netsol, Barclays (no need for composers = easier life for movie and TV producers, game developers, etc.)

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Recurrent neural network architecture
• Computers producing music

What we learned

• RNN architectures
• Keras.io
• AWS GPU processing

What's next for SchumaNN

• refactoring
• training on bigger dataset with more epoches
