Evaluating Music Context Preservation: A Multi-facet Framework for Music Editing Systems
The paper proposes MuseCPEval, a framework for testing whether music edits preserve the parts of a track that should not change.
The authors define that problem as Music Context Preservation, or MuseCP. Their framework covers four categories of musical facets and uses tailored metrics to detect fine-grained changes. They validate the metrics with objective tests and a human study, then apply them to several music editing systems as a diagnostic testbed. The paper is accepted by ISMIR 2026. HF Daily Papers' note
