Welcome to MIREX 2010

This is the main page for the fifth running of the Music Information Retrieval Evaluation eXchange (MIREX 2010). The International Music Information Retrieval Systems Evaluation Laboratory (IMIRSEL) at the Graduate School of Library and Information Science (GSLIS), University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) is the principal organizer of MIREX 2010.

The MIREX 2010 community will hold its annual plenary meeting as part of The 11th International Conference on Music Information Retrieval, ISMIR 2010, which will be held in Utrecht, Netherlands, from August 9th to 13th, 2010.

J. Stephen Downie
Director, IMIRSEL


Note to New Participants

Please take the time to read the following review article that explains the history and structure of MIREX.

Downie, J. Stephen (2008). The Music Information Retrieval Evaluation Exchange (2005-2007):
A window into music information retrieval research.Acoustical Science and Technology 29 (4): 247-255.
Available at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1250/ast.29.247


Note to All Participants

Because MIREX is premised upon the sharing of ideas and results, ALL MIREX participants are expected to:

  1. submit a DRAFT 2-3 page extended abstract PDF in the ISMIR format about the submitted programme(s) to help us and the community better understand how the algorithm works when submitting their programme(s).
  2. submit a FINALIZED 2-3 page extended abstract PDF in the ISMIR format prior to ISMIR 2010 for posting on the respective results pages (sometimes the same abstract can be used for multiple submissions; in many cases the DRAFT and FINALIZED abstracts are the same)
  3. present a poster at the MIREX 2010 poster session at ISMIR 2010 (exact date to be announced)



Dates

  • Submission system opening TBA
  • Algorithm submission deadline TBA

Note: In practice, there will be rolling final deadlines for different tasks. Pay attention to the wiki pages of tasks you are interested in. The Audio Music Similarity submission need to be submitted as close to the deadline as possible as we have to then run the human evaluations.


Getting Involved in MIREX 2010

MIREX is a community-based endeavour. Be a part of the community and help make MIREX 2010 the best yet.

Mailing List Participation

If you are interested in formal MIR evaluation, you should also subscribe to the "MIREX" (aka "EvalFest") mail list and participate in the community discussions about defining and running MIREX 2010 tasks. Subscription information at: https://mail.lis.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/evalfest

Wiki Participation

Please note that you must create a NEW login for this wiki even if you have a login that you previously used for editing the MIREX 2005 or 2006 or 2007 or 2008 or 2009 wikis.

Please create an account via: Create Account.


Possible MIREX 2010 Evaluation Tasks

2009 Tasks as Templates

The following tasks were those run in 2009. We have created 2010 templates from these 2009 tasks. By following the links below, you can access the 2009 templates as a starting point. Feel free to build upon, extend and edit these templates in order to define the tasks for 2010. Note we will run a task if there are three or more committed participants. It will probably be the case that not all of the 2009 tasks will be run in 2010.

Very Important: Feel free to propose new tasks and add to the list below. Also feel free to resurrect tasks from previous years.
