This is a small experiment on interpretable handwriting generation using CVAEs. Each character is generated individually with a bit of variance by default, and they&#x27;re stitched together with a basic algorithm for pretty convincing results. You can play with the parameters at the top-right menu; note that they are unlabeled (x1-x6) since they were learned using an unsupervised algorithm.<p>I&#x27;m curious if anyone finds the results interesting. This is a very early stage experiment, but it might be possible to copy someone&#x27;s handwriting style from a couple of scanned characters with a bit more work, for example.
