linearized-musicxml 1.0.0

MusicXML linearization for img2seq model training

Linearized MusicXML (LMX)

A python package for linearizing and de-linearizing MusicXML into a sequential format so that it can be used for training img2seq machine learning models.

Install via:

pip3 install linearized-musicxml

Use from the command line:

# MusicXML -> LMX (accepts both XML and MXL)
python3 -m lmx linearize example.musicxml # produces example.lmx
python3 -m lmx linearize example.mxl # produces example.lmx
cat example.musicxml | python3 -m lmx linearize - # prints to stdout (only uncompressed XML input)

# LMX -> MusicXML (only uncompressed XML output available)
python3 -m lmx delinearize example.lmx # produces example.musicxml
cat example.lmx | python3 -m lmx delinearize - # prints to stdout
