Welcome to the AMS grader sign-up page. Please give us your name and email contact information. If you obscure your email, please make it relatively obvious to us how to parse the address.

We are under the usual time constraints this year. ISMIR 2012 begins 8
October. We need to have all the MIREX results calculated and posted by
our 1 October target date (fingers crossed)!

We hope to open the Evalutron 6000 (E6K) v.2 grading system by
Friday, 14 September. To meet our 1 October goal, we must have all the
AMS and SMS similarity grades entered into the E6K by Wednesday, 26 September. So, if you are kind enough to sign up to be a grader, PLEASE understand
that we REALLY need you complete your assigned grading by 26 September.

If you are a SMS or AMS participant, we ask that you do what you can to
encourage adults over 18 years of age to be graders.

We are looking for 50 graders for AMS this year. If we make our quota of 50 graders, each grader will be responsible for two query lists. If we fall short, and get around 34 graders, we will be asking each grader to grade 3 queries. In this worst case scenario, we still expect the grading process to take between 2.5 to 3 hours (or less) for each grader.

This year the query lists seem to be moderate in length so tackling two queries lists should not be too onerous. For safety's sake, we would like to see say, an extra 5 or so names on the sign up sheet below. The "extra names" on the sign up sheet will be considered "back up" graders. We will assign grading tasks in the order of the names as they appear below.

2011:MIREX 2011 Poster List

2011-10-19T12:21:19Z

Benjamin Martin: /* Add your author names here, once for each poster along with "title of some sort" and (Task(s) covered) */

==MIREX 2011 Poster Session Planning List==
The MIREX 2011 Poster Session will be held Thursday, 27 October: 12:00-13:50. We will be holding the MIREX plenary meeting 11:00-12:00 on the same day.

Our hosts in Miami need to know the number of posters so they can set up the room. Please add you name and the task(s) dealt with in your poster.

We had many groups/individuals submit across tasks. You can choose to create one ISMIR poster bringing all your data together or can split up your data across, say, two or three posters. If you have questions, please contact me at jdownie@illinois.edu or the MIREX mailing list about task poster options.

===Poster Guidelines===
As in the past, MIREX will follow the ISMIR poster guidelines. All poster sessions, excluding the late-breaking/demo session on Friday, the 28th will be held in the Regency Ballroom. The dimension of a poster board is 36in by 48in (or 48in by 36in if used in landscape mode). A presenter will be responsible for removing his/her poster at the conclusion of its session.

===Possible Printing Option===
A FedEx/Kinko (4441 Collins Avenue) shop is near the conference hotel (4833 Collins Avenue) about four blocks away. The turnaround time is about four hours for walk-in orders. A google map shows the hotel and the shop can be found [http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&aq=&vpsrc=6&gl=us&ie=UTF8&hq=fedex+kinkos+miami+beach+collins&hnear=&t=m&msa=0&msid=207227323913999833158.0004af7ffbb36f333fa3b&sll=25.733107,-80.197449&sspn=0.376694,0.473785&ll=25.8172,-80.123162&spn=0.023527,0.029612&z=15 here].
