Box 31155 Bellingham, WA 98228 360.610.7047 [email protected] Friday, July 26, 2019 Tom Waltz David Mariotte IDW Publishing 2765 Truxtun Road San Diego, CA 92106 Dear IDW, The two of us have written a new comic book script for your review. Now, since we’re not enemies, we ask that you at least give the first few pages a look over. Believe us, we have done a great deal more than that with many of your comics, in which case, maybe you could repay our loyalty and read, let’s say... ten pages? If after that attempt you put it aside we shall be sorry. For you! If the a bove seems flippant, please forgive us. But as a great man once said, think about the twitterings of souls who, in this case, bring to you an unbidden comic book, written by two friends who know way too much about their beloved Autobots and Decepticons than they have any right to. We ask that you remember your own such twitterings, and look upon our work as a gift of creative cohesion. A new take on the ever-growing, nostalgic-cravings of a generation now old enough to afford all the proverbial ‘cool toys’. As two long-term Transformers fans, we have seen the highs-and-lows of the franchise come and go.

  • Compound Word Transformer: Learning to Compose Full-Song Music Over Dynamic Directed Hypergraphs
    The Thirty-Fifth AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-21) Compound Word Transformer: Learning to Compose Full-Song Music over Dynamic Directed Hypergraphs Wen-Yi Hsiao,1 Jen-Yu Liu,1, Yin-Cheng Yeh,1 Yi-Hsuan Yang2 1Yating Team, Taiwan AI Labs, Taiwan 2Academia Sinica, Taiwan fwayne391, jyliu, yyeh, [email protected] Abstract To apply neural sequence models such as the Transformers to music generation tasks, one has to represent a piece of music by a sequence of tokens drawn from a finite set of pre-defined vocabulary. Such a vocabulary usually involves tokens of var- ious types. For example, to describe a musical note, one needs separate tokens to indicate the note’s pitch, duration, velocity (dynamics), and placement (onset time) along the time grid. While different types of tokens may possess different proper- ties, existing models usually treat them equally, in the same way as modeling words in natural languages. In this paper, we present a conceptually different approach that explicitly takes Figure 1: Illustration of the main ideas of the proposed com- into account the type of the tokens, such as note types and pound word Transformer: (left) compound word modeling metric types. And, we propose a new Transformer decoder ar- that combines the embeddings (colored gray) of multiple to- K chitecture that uses different feed-forward heads to model to- kens fwt−1;kgk=1, one for each token type k, at each time kens of different types. With an expansion-compression trick, step t − 1 to form the input ~xt−1 to the self-attention layers, we convert a piece of music to a sequence of compound words and (right) toke type-specific feed-forward heads that predict by grouping neighboring tokens, greatly reducing the length the list of tokens for the next time step t at once at the output.
