Music Aesthetics

1. Naturalness: Does the audio sound like a realistic, human performance? Low scores indicate synthetic artifacts, robotic voices, or obvious generation glitches.
2. Clarity: The quality of the production and mixing. Is the audio distinct and clear, or muddy and noisy?
3. Musicality: The overall musical quality. Does it follow musical rules (harmony, rhythm) and is it pleasant to listen to?
4. Coherence: The structural logic of the piece. Does the music progress naturally, or does it feel random and disjointed?
5. Memorability: The "catchiness" of the track. How distinct and memorable is the melody or rhythm?

Overall Aesthetics Score: This is calculated by taking the average of the 5 individual metric scores.

Architecture

This model operates on top of the OpenAI Whisper encoder (specifically the fine-tuned version linked above).

1. Audio Encoder: 30 seconds of audio $\to$ Whisper Encoder $\to$ Last Hidden State (1, 1500, 768).
2. Feature Extraction:
   • The 1500 frames are split into 10 segments.
   • For each segment, we calculate Mean, Max, and Min pooling.
   • These are concatenated and flattened into a single vector of size 23,040.
3. Aesthetics Model:
   • Bottleneck: Reduces the 23k input to 256 dimensions (Shared knowledge).
   • Expert Heads: 5 separate MLPs that predict the specific score for each metric.

Inference Example

To use this model, you need librosa, transformers, torch, and huggingface_hub.
