MML 2016: 9th International Workshop on Machine Learning and Music
http://musml.weebly.com
October 6, 2017 Barcelona

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.
