Recent advances in generative AI are raising ethical concerns regarding the originality of generated content and the potential replication of training data, with further implications for transparency, attribution, and intellectual property. In music, several computational approaches have been proposed to identify potential replication, using audio-based similarity metrics. Yet, their alignment with human judgments across distinct musical attributes remains underexplored. To address this gap, we conduct a perceptual experiment on music matches, defined as strongly similar musical excerpts. We focus on five musical attributes: melody, harmony, rhythm, voice, and timbre. We design a triplet-based forced-choice task comprising 300 cases, including plagiarism examples, cover songs, and AI-generated music. From this experiment, we introduce the MATCHA (Musical Attribute-based Triplet Comparison with Human Annotations) dataset: a collection of 1105 perceptual assessments of attribute-based music matches from 83 expert participants. Our findings reveal measurable agreement among participants in identifying matches across attributes. We further observe partial alignment between human judgments and computational similarity measures. Overall, this work underscores the importance of domain-specific and perceptually grounded evaluation frameworks for generative AI in creative practice.
GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations of such models.

Empirically, PRISM reduces the end-to-end time for data selection and model tuning to just 30% of conventional pipelines, and achieves this efficiency while simultaneously enhancing performance, surpassing models fine-tuned on the full dataset across eight multimodal and three language understanding benchmarks.

In this paper, we present a novel approach to improving software quality and efficiency through a Large Language Model (LLM)-based model designed to review code and identify potential issues. Our proposed LLM-based AI agent model is trained on large code repositories. This training includes code reviews, bug reports, and documentation of best practices. It aims to detect code smells, identify potential bugs, provide suggestions for improvement, and optimize the code. Unlike traditional static code analysis tools, our LLM-based AI agent has the ability to predict future potential risks in the code. This supports a dual goal of improving code quality and enhancing developer education by encouraging a deeper understanding of best practices and efficient coding techniques. Furthermore, we explore the model's effectiveness in suggesting improvements that significantly reduce post-release bugs and enhance code review processes, as evidenced by an analysis of developer sentiment toward LLM feedback. For future work, we aim to assess the accuracy and efficiency of LLM-generated documentation updates in comparison to manual methods. This will involve an empirical study focusing on manually conducted code reviews to identify code smells and bugs, alongside an evaluation of best practice documentation, augmented by insights from developer discussions and code reviews. Our goal is to not only refine the accuracy of our LLM-based tool but also to underscore its potential in streamlining the software development lifecycle through proactive code improvement and education.
