Hi @Rydion Nice project you have going on! i'm a graphic designer and I contribute to cool projects (open source) like this one! I'd like to contribute delivering a new logo! What do you think? A simple clean logo that suits with this awesome project!!

I'll look forward for your reply, cheers!

Hi @tjulises.

Sure, I'm just getting started but I'd like to pimp up the project eventually anyway.

If you come up with a cool logo I'll make sure to use it and to give you credit somewhere visible (if you wanna have a link to your social media we can do that too).

The only condition is that the logo would be bundled with the source code and licensed under GNU/GPL as well (you can still release it as a standalone logo under a different license if you so wish).

The project is about using deep learning (neural networks) to transcribe music.

I'd also like to ask some questions (towards the logo-making) @Rydion

What's the name that should be displayed on the logo, If there should be any.

How would you describe this project, what is it intended to do?

What would you like this logo to transmit?

this little details are going to help me transmit what it's supposed to.

I'll look forward for your reply, cheers!

Hi, I'm personally not a big fan of text in logos, also the name of the project is provisional.

The goal of the project is to use U-Nets which are a type of fully-convolutional neural network to achieve music transcription. Here you can see an image representing the structure of a U-Net.

What that basically means is that we want to train a model that can receive a visual representation of a piece of music and output the corresponding piano roll representation. A.k.a transcribe the piece of music.

I wouldn't worry too much about the technical details. Personally I would go with something that relates the initial wave/frequency to the piano roll output (it could also be musical notation which probably looks nicer). Maybe introduce the U shape of the model somewhere? I'll leave that to you though, I haven't designed a logo in my entire live, haha.
