To train with default parameters on the tinyshakespeare corpus, run python train.py. To access all the parameters use python train.py --help.
To sample from a checkpointed model, python sample.py.
You can use any plain text file as input. For example you could download The complete Sherlock Holmes as such:
cd data
mkdir sherlock
cd sherlock
wget https://sherlock-holm.es/stories/plain-text/cnus.txt
mv cnus.txt input.txtThen start train from the top level directory using python train.py --data_dir=./data/sherlock/
A quick tip to concatenate many small disparate .txt files into one large training file: ls *.txt | xargs -L 1 cat >> input.txt
To visualize training progress, model graphs, and internal state histograms: fire up Tensorboard and point it at your log_dir. E.g.:
$ tensorboard --logdir=./logs/Then open a browser to http://localhost:6006 or the correct IP/Port specified.
