Tutorial day: January 26, 2014. 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 ----------------------------------------- The programme highlights 3 keynote and 4 invited talks from world = leading researchers in the field of Semantic Audio as well as from = industry.
