This project uses Character-based RNNs using the awesome [textgenrnn](https://github.com/minimaxir/textgenrnn) module, trained on the common names of around 11k birds to generate a new bird name.\n\nWow such awesome!\n\nCreating and training RNN models is fairly easy with textgenrnn. The architecture used here is 3-layered character-level bidirectional RNN with 128 LSTM cells in each layer. It was trained using GPUs on [this Google Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1TbHIok9WCVlTznDwtsDaJM1vpjUXK5bT?usp=sharing). Then, the weights were saved locally and are used to generate a new bird name on each new request.\n\n## Dataset\n\nThe datatset used for creating the training examples is scraped from [List of birds by common names](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_birds_by_common_name).\n\n## Running\n\nThis only works with Python 3.6 as of now.\n\n## Notes\n\nIf you want to be surprised by what RNNs can do, do check out Andrej Karapathy's blog on [The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Recurrent Neural Networks](https://karpathy.github.io/2015/05/21/rnn-effectiveness/). It's a really great read.\n\n## Thanks\n\nThanks to [Ashutosh Singh](https://github.com/thecodepapaya) for being an inspiration and a birmd figure for this project. And [Harsh Kakani](https://github.com/Harshkakani) for his constant support in making sure Ashutosh remains a birmd figure.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthepushkarp%2Fbirmd","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fthepushkarp%2Fbirmd","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthepushkarp%2Fbirmd/lists"}
