MML 2010: 3rd International Workshop on Machine Learning and Music

Firenze, Italy, October 29, 2010
http://www.dtic.upf.edu/~rramirez/MML10/ 

Held in conjunction with ACM Multimedia 2010
http://www.acmmm10.org/ 

With the current explosion and quick expansion of multimedia digital formats
in general, and music digital formats in particular, research on machine
learning and music is gaining increasing popularity. As complexity of the
problems investigated by researchers on this area increases, there is a
need to develop new algorithms and methods to solve these problems.
Machine learning has proved to provide efficient solutions to many
music-related problems both of academic and commercial interest. The goal of
MML 2010 is to bring together researchers who are using machine learning in
musical applications, providing the opportunity to promote, present and discuss
ongoing work in the area. The workshop is planned to last one full day, and
will feature paper presentations, panel discussions and open discussions.
Accepted contributions will be available from the workshop web page as soon as
possible in order to encourage active discussion during the workshop.

We invite extended abstract contributions describing machine learning
approaches to music processing including, but not limited to:

* Sound Synthesis and Analysis
* Music Classification and Generation
* Formal Music Analysis
* Computational Musicology / Ethnomusicology
* Music Information Retrieval
* Knowledge Representation and Computational Models
* Printing and Optical Recognition of Music
* Psychoacoustics and Music Perception
* Cognitive Modeling
* Adaptive Systems and Music Education
* Algorithmic Composition
* Interactive Performance Systems
* Digital Audio Signal Processing
* Cover Song Detection
* Expressive Music Performance
* Chord Extraction from Audio


Submissions:
------------

Papers of 4 printed pages in two-column ACM proceedings format are welcome.
Articles should  include author names, affiliations, contact
information, and  an abstract of 70-100 words. Papers will be reviewed by at
least two members of the Workshop Committee. Paper submission will be
handled through the EDAS system.

Dates:
