Call for Papers
MML 2016: 9th International Workshop on Machine Learning
and Music
Held in Conjunction with the European Conference on Machine
Learning and Principles and Practice of Knowledge Discovery in
Databases (ECML/PKDD 2016)
September 23, 2016
Riba del Garda, Italy
Motivation
Machine learning has permeated nearly every area of music
informatics, driven by a profusion of recordings available in
digital audio formats, steady improvements to the
accessibility and quality of symbolic corpora, availability of
powerful algorithms in standard machine learning toolboxes,
and theoretical advances in machine learning and data mining.
As complexity of the problems investigated by researchers on
machine learning and music increases, there is a need to
develop new algorithms and methods to solve these problems. As
a consequence, research on machine learning and music is an
active and growing field reflected in international meetings
such as the International Workshops on Machine Learning and
Music (MML): MML’08 (Helsinki, Finland), MML’09 (Bled,
Slovenia), MML'10 (Florence, Italy), MML’11 (Sierra Nevada,
Spain), MML'12 (Edinburgh, Scotland), MML'13 (Prague, Czech
Republic), MML14 (Barcelona, Spain), and MML15 (Vancouver,
Canada).
Topics
Papers in all applications on music and machine learning
are welcome, including but not limited to automatic
classification of music (audio and MIDI)
Important Dates
Paper Submission Deadline: July 4, 2016
Acceptance Notification: July 25, 2016
Final versions due: August 8, 2016
Workshop Date: September 23, 2016
Submissions of Papers
Papers of up to 5 printed pages in LNCS format are welcome.
