# MUImage Dataset

This is the MUImage dataset used to facilitate image to music generation, consisting of **9,966 music files** with a total playtime of **27.72 hours** generated using the [MU-LLaMA](https://github.com/crypto-code/MU-LLaMA) and [BLIP Image Captioning](https://github.com/salesforce/BLIP) models.
This dataset is used to train the [M<sup>2</sup>UGen](https://github.com/crypto-code/M2UGen) model.

The [MUImageInstructions.json](./MUImageInstructions.json) file contains a list with each of the element having the following format:
```
{
  "input_file": "1OeqDC6vmto.jpg",
  "output_file": "1OeqDC6vmto.mp3",
  "conversation": [
    {
      "from": "human",
      "value": "Generate a music for the image that is ethereal and spacey, with a focus on the synthesizers and bass, and a hint of a pulsing beat.",
      "input_modality": "image",
      "caption": "the image shows a bright star in the center of a galaxy"
    },
    {
      "from": "gpt",
      "value": "Here is a music that is space-themed and could fit well with the image of a bright star in the center of a galaxy.",
      "caption": "The music is a blend of electronic and acoustic instruments, with a focus on the synthesizers and bass.",
      "output_modality": "audio"
    }
  ]
}
