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): MML2008 (Helsinki, Finland), MML2009 (Bled, Slovenia), MML2010 (Florence, Italy), MML2011 (Sierra Nevada, Spain), MML2012 (Edinburgh, Scotland), MML2013 (Prague, Czech Republic), MML2014 (Barcelona, Spain), MML2015 (Vancouver, Canada), and MML2016 (Riva del Garda, Italy).
SPECIAL THEME: INTELLIGENT MUSIC LEARNING SYSTEMS
Machine learning holds great potential for enhancing music learning. For MML2017, in addition to general topics in music and machine learning, we warmly welcome contributions describing applications of machine learning for technology-enhanced music learning.
TOPICS
Papers in all applications on music and machine learning are welcome, including but not limited to
- intelligent music learning systems
- machine learning applications to music learning
- automatic classification of music (audio and MIDI)
- style-based interpreter recognition
- automatic composition and improvisation
- music recommender systems, genre and tag prediction
- score alignment
- polyphonic pitch detection
- chord extraction
- pattern discovery
- music analysis
- beat tracking
- expressive performance modeling
- similarity
Audio demonstrations are encouraged when indicated by the content of the paper.
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper Submission Deadline: July 3, 2017
Acceptance Notification: July 30, 2017
Final versions due: August 10, 2017
Workshop Date: October 6, 2017
SUBMISSIONS OF PAPERS
Papers of up to 5 printed pages in LNCS format are welcome.
