Evaluating Music Context Preservation: A Multi-facet Framework for Music Editing Systems

The paper introduces MuseCPEval, the first comprehensive framework for assessing Music Context Preservation (MuseCP) in music editing systems. It defines four categories of music facets and provides fine‑grained metrics to detect subtle changes during editing tasks such as timbre transfer, instrument substitution, and genre transformation. The authors validate the metrics objectively and through a human study, and demonstrate their practical use in evaluating diverse editing systems, offering insights into each system’s strengths and limitations.
