Conference on Music Information Retreival (ISMIR 06) October 8-12, 2006, Fairmont Empress Hotel, Victoria, BC, Canada http://ismir2006.ismir.net ISMIR 2006 Call for Submissions ISMIR 2006 is the seventh international conference on Music Information Retrieval and will be held at the Fairmont Empress Hotel in beautiful Victoria, Canada. The annual ISMIR Conference is the established international forum for those working on accessing digital musical material. It reflects the tremendous recent growth of music-related data available and the consequent need to search within it to retrieve music and musical information efficiently and effectively. These concerns are of interest to academia, industry, entertainment, and education. ISMIR therefore aims to provide a place for the exchange and discussion of news, issues and results, by bringing together researchers and developers, educators and librarians, students and professional users, working in fields that contribute to this multidisciplinary domain, to present original theoretical or practical work. It also serves as a discussion forum, provides introductory and in-depth information in specific domains, and showcases current products and systems. SCOPE Papers, posters/demos, tutorial and panels are solicited for, but not limited to, the general areas: - Music libraries, archives, digital collections - Intellectual Property rights and business issues - Western and non-western musicology, music analysis - Composition, musical forms and structures - Searching, navigation, retrieval - Knowledge representation - Music perception, cognition, affect, emotion - Human-computer interaction and interfaces - Databases, languages, protocols - Systems, internet software, mobile devices - Social and ethical issues SCHEDULE - Papers, posters/demos, tutorials, panels : 17 April 2006 - Notification of acceptance : 15 June 2006 - Camera-ready paper submission : 08 July 2006 Check the conference website http://ismir2006.ismir.net for more details and updates.
