Pretty sure the first continuation is a famous piece with a few notes messed up. Can't remember the name. Honestly it only sounds marginally better than the old markov chain continuations.
Isn’t that as good as it gets? The whole point of the continuations is that given a short leading prompt from a real piece that it should continue it realistically.
It didn’t get to train on the test set, if that’s what you’re implying, and I find it hard to believe the assertion that continuations are copies of the train set (if that’s your claim).
Wow, good find! They definitely sound similar but it’s not a facsimile. I wonder if this holds for the other samples.
I guess in retrospect we asked it to continue the music in a likely way, not be novel. And it definitely convinced me enough to be impressive. An NN that composes completely fresh music, whatever that means (I’m sure most modern human music has a hefty dose of cross song sampling), would certainly be a good next goal post.
