📊 Dataset

The dataset is derived from DALI, a large collection of synchronized audio, lyrics, and vocal notes. From 6,984 English songs after filtering, we extracted lyrics and constructed 9,600 paragraphs per stage.

🧪 Experiment Results

LyriCAR achieves state-of-the-art performance across all automatic metrics (BLEU, COMET) on the EN–CH lyric translation task, outperforming all baselines—including the strong Qwen3-8B model. It also obtains the highest scores on our multi-dimensional reward evaluation, indicating that the model has truly internalized musical-linguistic alignment patterns rather than relying on shallow correlations. Notably, LyriCAR-SD further reduces training steps by 34% compared to LyriCAR-SS while delivering superior translation quality.
