2006:Poster Session and Discussion Topics

Introduction

This is a quick and dirty wiki page for MIREX folks to post their names and tentative poster titles for the Wednesday, 11 October 2006, MIREX 2006 lunch/poster session from 12:00-14:00 at ISMIR 2006.

Under the POSTER INFORMATION section, I would like you to simply add your name, your real or tentative poster title/topic and an indication that you will be able to attend the poster session. If you would like to have poster presence, but cannot be at the poster session, please contact me ASAP (jdownie@uiuc.edu) as we might be able to work something out.

Under the DISCUSSION TOPICS section, please post all your ideas, suggestions, gripes, comments that you think would help make the MIREX Results and Planning Plenary to be held Thursday, 12 October 2006 in the afternoon after lunch as productive and informative as possible.

J. Stephen Downie's Suggestions

1. Should we have some kind of "mid-year" planning meeting?
2. The never-ending shortage of test sets!
3. Starting novel tasks ASAP (see above)
4. Coding for robustness (the dirty data problem)
5. Task v. Contest issue
6. Rewarding/recognizing strong submissions (see above)

A. L. Uitdenbogerd's Suggestions

1. Standardisation of input/output requirements across years
