This repo contains instructions to reproduce the domain transfer results in the paper Deep Learning for Classical Japanese Literature.

Versions

Tested on TensorFlow 1.8.0, scipy 0.19.1, numpy 1.13.3, python 3.5

Instructions

First run python build_data.py to construct the Kanji dataset.

To train models, run python train.py to train all models, and run trained models on test set afterwards.

A notebook called demo.ipynb is also available to visualize the data and model predictions.
