Cadenza is running signal processing/machine learning challenges to improving music for those with a hearing loss. The first task is about listening over headphones,
and is set up as a demix/remix challenge. The second task is listening in the car, and is a bit like near-end speech enhancement but for music. Entrants will be evaluated both by objective metrics and a panel of listeners with hearing loss. With 430 million people having a significance hearing loss, improving music reproduction will help quality of life for lots of people. If you're interested, we have a webinar and Q&A to outline the current open tasks, go through the data we're providing and the baseline software, and to answers
Qs to help people tackle the problems. Tue, 23 May 2023 12 -14 BST. Sign up:
