Auto-TLDR; Evaluation of generative models in the symbolic music domain using the circle of fifths
Abstract Slides Poster Similar
Evaluation of generative AI is a difficult problem, especially in artistic domains in which aesthetic qualities of generated samples are to an extent subjective, such as in music. The most widely accepted method for evaluating such models is to conduct a survey of users, which is a resource intensive process. In this work we propose a framework for cheaply evaluating generative models in the symbolic music domain by utilizing tools from music theory, such as the circle of fifths, with the goal of producing quantifiable metrics which reflect the "musicality" of a written score or MIDI file.
