creating your own style?

[FergalHennessy]

is there a script that allows us to create our own style files from drawing, or a link to the program that was used to generate them? ^_^

You'd need to train your own model, as described here:

is this true? looking at the code it seems the style files are just regular x files, and that the output is generated using the priming method, which means you can use the pretrained model

That just tells us about training the model on presumably the same dataset.
Is there any resource to process my own handwriting to be able to generate that.

Or like @FergalHennessy mentioned can we use the pretrained model with our own handwriting

I'm searching for such a script myself. I attempted to create one but couldn't figure out how to replicate the format of the .npy files in the styles directory. I am able to train my data using rnn.py after having reverse engineered the prepare_data.py script but the format between the training data files and the style files seems drastically different, at least for the character data. Stroke data seems to be the same, actually.

I'm interested as well

Were you ever able to find this? I want to train a model with my own handwriting.

I got a rudimentary script from someone who managed to get it to work. I haven't looked at it yet as I haven't had the time. Here is where it is posted.

Is it possible that using this Repo - I can upload 20-30 pages of my own handwriting and this code then can write in that particular style?

I never found an easy way to do this, so I just built it myself. It's not perfect but it gets the job done. You just write ~800 "prompts" (~70 characters each) and train the model.

I tried it myself and got close (becoming too lazy to write any more), but one person (who you can find in the issues of that repo) managed to get an impressive result.

Do you know if the drawing board you used is compatible with android tablet? Like if I ran the python code on android directly I wonder if this would be compatible with stylus to make it better handwriting for the prompts

What i originally tried was using my s24 ultra spen. Samsung has this little beta feature thats hidden where you can make your device a wireless display for your PC. I used that and started to draw using my SPEN, i noticed my screen was too small to be able to do it correctly so i just went ahead and bought a Gaomon drawing tablet (im returning it after im done). Im sure you could use an samsung table with an spen it would be big enough.

I just created this web-based handwriting data maker that works on touch devices. It is crude, but gets the job done. See my handwriting data repository for more information on how to use it. Please raise an issue on the repository if you see any glaring problems or important things to add.

This would have been so useful couple days ago. Sadly I'm past this step, currently struggling with implementing the training step on Google colab. I had it working a couple hours ago but it was using the cpu rather than the gpu and then it broke and I gave up for now.
