Chairs: Karlheinz Brandenburg and Mark Sandler, Email: = 53rd_chair@xxxxxxxx Semantic Audio is concerned with content-based management of digital = audio recordings. The rapid evolution of digital audio technologies, = e.g. audio data compression and streaming, the availability of large = audio libraries online and offline, and recent developments in = content-based audio retrieval have significantly changed the way digital = audio is created, processed, and consumed. New audio content can be = produced at lower cost, while also large audio archives at libraries or = record labels are opening to the public. Thus the sheer amount of = available audio data grows more and more each day. Semantic analysis of = audio resulting in high-level metadata descriptors such as musical = chords and tempo, or the identification of speakers facilitate = content-based management of audio recordings. Aside from audio retrieval = and recommendation technologies, the semantics of audio signals are also = becoming increasingly important, for instance, in object-based audio = coding, as well as intelligent audio editing, and processing. Recent = product releases already demonstrate this to a great extent, however, = more innovative functionalities relying on semantic audio analysis and = management are imminent. These functionalities may utilise, for = instance, (informed) audio source separation, speaker segmentation and = identification, structural music segmentation, or social and Semantic = Web technologies, including ontologies and linked open data. This conference will give a broad overview of the state of the art and = address many of the new scientific disciplines involved in this = still-emerging field. Our purpose is to continue fostering this line of = interdisciplinary research. This is reflected by the wide variety of = invited speakers presenting at the conference. Keynote and invited speakers ----------------------------------------- * Meinard M=FCller (International Audio Laboratories Erlangen, Germany)=20= * Ga=EBl Richard (TELECOM ParisTech and CNRS, France) * Gerhard Widmer (Department of Computational Perception, Johannes = Kepler University, Linz, Austria) * Yves Raimond (BBC R&D, London, UK) For an up-to-date list of the invited talks, please refer to the = conference website at http://www.aes.org/conferences/53/. Submission of papers ------------------------------- Submissions may include full papers for peer review (4-10 pages, = conforming the AES conference template), or short, late-breaking paper = proposals including a title and abstract (60-120 words).

Late-breaking paper = proposals should be submitted by October 15, 2013.=20 Peer reviewed papers may be presented in the main sessions, or as a = poster at the discretion of the committee, although authors may indicate = a preference. Acceptance of papers will be determined by the 53rd = international conference review committee based on the full paper = submission. Accepted authors will be notified by November 6, 2013. Final = manuscripts must be submitted by November 27, 2013. Authors wishing = their conference papers to be considered for publication by the Journal = of the Audio Engineering Society (JAES), should read the Journal's = guidelines described at: http://www.aes.org/journal/authors/guidelines/ = and, following the conference, submit a revised and extended version of = their paper for review, using the Journal's online submission system. Acceptance of late-breaking demo and poster proposals will be determined = by the review committee based on the abstract. Accepted authors will be = invited to submit two page extended abstracts (short papers), which will = not form part of the official proceedings, but will be published online, = and available from the conference web site. (Additionally, authors of = short papers are invited to use open-access publication routes including = arXiv.org.) Accepted authors will be notified by November 6, 2013. Final = submissions will due January 6, 2014.=20 All papers must conform to the LaTeX or MS-Word templates available from = www.aes.org/53rd_authors.
