Special Comments

We are under extraordinary time constraints this year because ISMIR 2010 is being held starting 9 August and we need to have all the final results calculated and posted by our 2 August target date (fingers crossed).

We hope to open the the Evalutron 6000 (E6K) v.2 grading system by 20 July. To meet our 2 August goal, we must have all the AMS and SMS similarity grades entered into the E6K by 27 July. YES, THIS GIVES US ONLY ONE WEEK! So, if you are kind enough to sign up to be a grader, please understand that we really need you complete your assigned grading by 27 July.

If you are a SMS or AMS participant, we ask that you do what you can to encourage adults over 18 years of age to be graders.

We are looking for 50 graders for AMS this year. If we make our quota of 50 graders, each grader will be responsible for two query lists. If we fall short, and get around 34 graders, we will be asking each grader to grade 3 queries. In this worst case scenario, we still expect the grading process to take between 2.5 to 3 hours (or less) for each grader.


This year the query lists seem to be moderate in length so tackling two queries lists should not be too onerous. For safety's sake, we would like to see say, an extra five or so names on the sign up sheet below. The "extra names" on the sign up sheet will be considered "back up" graders. We will assign grading tasks in the order of the names as they appear below.
