Let the Poem Hit the Rhythm: Using a Byte-Based Transformer for Beat-Aligned Poetry Generation
The intersection between poetry and music provides an interesting case for computational creativity, yet remains relatively unexplored. This paper explores the integration of poetry and music through the lens of beat patterns, investigating whether a byte-based language model can generate words that fit specific beat patterns within the context of poetry. Drawing on earlier studies, we developed a method to train a byte-based transformer model, ByT5, to align poems with beat patterns. The results demonstrate a high level of beat alignment while maintaining semantic coherence. Future work will aim to improve the model's ability to create complete beat-aligned poems.

Rap generation, which aims to produce lyrics and corresponding singing beats, needs to model both rhymes and rhythms. Previous works for rap generation focused on rhyming lyrics but ignored rhythmic beats, which are impo…
