Subject: Wanted: Environmental Sounds Recordings From: Mathieu Lagrange <Mathieu.Lagrange@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2012 10:17:02 +0100 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--Apple-Mail-4-742467764 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Dear all, we are currently collecting recordings of environmental sound events to = artificially generate synthetic environmental scenes. Those scenes will serve as open evaluation data within the IEEE AASP = Challenge on Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events,=20 If you are keen on recording sounds of your environment, please = contribute to this research effort !! To see what kind of sounds we are looking for, and contribute if you = can, please visit the following web page: = http://soundthings.org/challenge-contrib/ All the submitted data will be held during the evaluation stage of the = challenge and then released on Freesound under the "creative commons" = licence (unless you explicitly ask us not to). IMPORTANT: Our target here is diversity. So please do not restrain = yourself with respect to sound quality, hardware, and encoding formats. = Obviously, good sound quality is a plus, but everything is welcome !!
