# MuseCritic

MuseCritic is introduced in **MuseCritic: Learning Multi-Aspect Song Rewards
through Natural-Language Aesthetic Critiques**.

MuseCritic is a semi-scalar reward model for long-form song evaluation. Given
a song and an aesthetic evaluation rubric, the model first generates a
natural-language critique covering five dimensions and then predicts five
continuous scores in the interval `(1, 5)`:

- Overall coherence
- Musicality
- Memorability
- Structural clarity
- Vocal naturalness
