AuraLuxMuse represents a significant advancement in multimodal AI by leveraging contrastive learning and mixture-of-experts architectures to align musical audio features with professional stage lighting cues. The system's core contribution lies in its ability to retrieve and adapt editable lighting designs based on designer intent, effectively bridging the gap between abstract music analysis and concrete aesthetic output without replacing human creativity. This work establishes a new benchmark for AI-assisted creative workflows in live performance environments through the introduction of the Musilux dataset.
AuraLuxMuse: Adaptive Fusion Modeling for Aesthetic Stage Lighting Design with Music and Expert Guidance
arXiv:2610.11792v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present AuraLuxMuse, a novel system for automated aesthetic stage lighting design that integrates expert knowledge, representation learning, and preference-adaptive modeling. Lighting design in live performance settings requires the seamless translation of musical features into dynamic lighting behaviors. However, traditional workflows remain time-consuming, labor-intensive, and difficult to transfer. AuraLuxMuse encodes music and professional cue sequences into a shared retrieval space, estimates cue-event density, and retargets selected fixture commands to the destination stage. It assists pre-production authoring by returning editable cues rather than replacing the designer with an unconstrained generator. At the heart of AuraLuxMuse are two key modules: Lighting-Aligned Music Pretraining (LAMP), which performs contrastive learning between audio and lighting cues for alignment, and Preference-Adaptive Mixture of Experts (PAMoE), which conditions preference-aware cue retrieval and adaptation on designers' intent through a gated ensemble of style-specific expert networks. To support training and evaluation, we introduce Musilux, the first dataset of paired musical audio and professional lighting cue sequences under diverse performance scenarios. We evaluate AuraLuxMuse across both virtual simulation environments and professional-grade laboratories. Experimental results, including objective and subjective evaluation, demonstrate that AuraLuxMuse retrieves and adapts stage-lighting cues that are visually cohesive, semantically meaningful, and artistically expressive, showing its potential for AI-assisted aesthetic stage design.
