This is the general thread for the alternative fan sites of the My Little Pony fandom. Discussion, development suggestions, and criticisms are all welcome here.Back from the grave edition.>Why alternate boorus?Recent changes to Derpibooru have made the site a less than ideal location for pony fan art. So, several new boorus have arisen to provide alternatives. Many of the altbooru owners post in thread and listen to questions and comments from anons. Note that this is NOT the Derpibooru drama general. Please keep posts about Derpibooru in the thread on mlpg.co.>Why alternate text sites?>Why alternate text, fanfiction, and fanfiction archival sites?Pastebin.com has deleted, and continues to delete, greentexts on the site. FimFiction does not allow stories in the greentext format. FimFetch has been purging foalcon and other material deemed to be "unacceptable" as late as Jan 22 of 2024,. As such, a new home is needed.Overview: altboorus.org>General purpose boorustwibooru.org by Twifag [!twifag.HOY] and Not Twifag/Floorb [!!H3PJaMJmY66]ponybooru.org by ZizzyDizzyMC [!DizzyMC4pc]Comment too long.

>>41264902Im mostly hoping he can implement the rest of the search options from fimfetch. Censorship aside, the owner did add a lot of useful filters for finding stuff which are lacking on foalfetch.
>>41265061it should have parity with fimfiction search at the very leastabout user-editable tags... eh, it's not archive's job to do this
>Page 10
>>41265481At the very least it should have a "removed stories only" search option because thats what the big majority of people want to use the archive for.>it's not archive's job to do thisBut still, it was definitely a big plus on fimfetch to have sex tags.

There was this mlp themed minecraft server, maybe it was hosted here idk, but it was like a faction survival on a custom-made map and you could pick what creature class you wanted. Each class had a kit of powers and passives. i remember it being pretty fun

Welcome to the Pony Voice Preservation Project!youtu.be/730zGRwbQuEThe Pony Preservation Project is a collaborative effort by /mlp/ to build and curate pony datasets for as many applications in AI as possible.Technology has progressed such that a trained neural network can generate convincing voice clips, drawings and text for any person or character using existing audio recordings, artwork and fanfics as a reference. As you can surely imagine, AI pony voices, drawings and text have endless applications for pony content creation.AI is incredibly versatile, basically anything that can be boiled down to a simple dataset can be used for training to create more of it. AI-generated images, fanfics, wAIfu chatbots and even animation are possible, and are being worked on here.Any anon is free to join, and there are many active tasks that would suit any level of technical expertise. If you’re interested in helping out, take a look at the quick start guide linked below and ask in the thread for any further detail you need.EQG and G5 are not welcome.>Quick start guide:docs.google.com/document/d/1PDkSrKKiHzzpUTKzBldZeKngvjeBUjyTtGCOv2GWwa0/editComment too long.

>>41246189Not sure if this is new, but you could try calculating X = mean(mare HuBERT features) - mean(source speaker HuBERT features), where the mean is elementwise and the vectors come from a sentence, paragraph, or the whole dataset.This gives you a vector pointing from "average source feature" to "average mare feature". Then, during inference, you can edit the source HuBERT features by adding a*X to them before the retrieval step, where a is a scaling factor from 0 to 1 or even higher.This will correct for the average difference between source/mare features, and hopefully reduce the artifacts.It's simple (and similar to your PCA experiments), but has been used before to make LLMs say that true/false statements are instead false/true.>https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.06824>https://blog.eleuther.ai/diff-in-means/Of course, it only works there because truth/falsehood is represented linearly (approximately) in LLMs. It's not clear if that applies to speaker identity in HuBERT.More generally, this technique is part of interpretability research, and it might be interesting to apply more of it to VC/TTS. For example, a recent trend is the sparse autoencoder, which can find understandable features in models. Such as a "Golden Gate feature" that, when strengthened, forces the model to only talk about the Golden Gate bridge:>https://www.anthropic.com/news/golden-gate-claudeFor speech models, maybe SAEs would find features like "high-pitched voice" or "vocal effort".>Some of the PCA perturbations also sound similar, seeming to modify formants of the output to the point where it still sounds like the correct words, but the speaker doesn't even sound like RDMy guess is that since PCA is applied over the whole sentence, the principal components will focus on info that is constant throughout the sentence (e.g. speaker identity), rather than info that is changing (e.g. current phoneme/pitch). Then, when you add/subtract the components, it modifies that global info, but mostly leaves the local info intact.
Just wanna share that I've been playing around with the effusive's StyleTTS gui code on my local machine and made a fair few changes (none of them being particularly final yet)One: I made it so that instead of having 1 voice with 2 different sections for selecting a different acoustic and prosody,I've now made it so those sections are each dedicated to their own voice with each having their own acoustic and prosody.Two: Instead of the audio file uploading just providing a different acoustic/prosody option, the audio file just becomes a character's style.Either overwriting an existing character style if the name text field matches an existing character, or making a new one if it doesn't match.Though in the spirit of the original feature, I've made it so you can have the one voice borrow the prosody of the other. And yes, I'm awarethe name text field should probably like stretch or something to better fit the text.Three: I've added an Epub Reader inference option, similar to an epub reader colab notebook that was shared at some point earlier, but I'vefixed it so that paragraphs get split better. And it directly interfaces with the gui during inference, actively changing the "text to infer"field as it goes, as well as the "Paragraph Min" field I added so that it keeps track of what paragraph it's on, and allows you to resume if it pauses.I also added the "Pause on Dialogue" check box so that when it encounters any dialogue (through some admittedly pretty meh quotation mark detection).That feature allows you to change which character you want to say the quote manually (because I still have no idea how to get decent automated quote attribution).Comment too long.
