Researchers have introduced SMEBench, a new benchmark designed to evaluate neural music editing systems. This benchmark addresses the challenge of measuring how well these systems perform requested edits while preserving unchanged musical content. SMEBench utilizes synthesized MIDI edits with paired source and target audio to allow for independent evaluation of source preservation, target agreement, and textual compatibility. The benchmark includes 3,600 examples covering twelve types of musical operations and has been used to assess six existing editing systems, revealing that different evaluation metrics can lead to varied conclusions about system performance.
