Welcome to MIREX 2024

After a break of 3 years, we want to bring back the MIREX (Music Information Retrieval Evaluation eXchange) competition starting from 2024. We want to bring in new tasks, benchmarks, and datasets in response to the rapid development of computer music research.

The MIREX community will hold its annual meeting as part of The International Society for Music Information Retrieval Conference. This year, the conference will be held in San Francisco, CA, USA and online from November 10–14, 2024.

In a long run, we want to make MIREX a platform for researchers to share their latest research results, to compare their systems with others, and to promote the development of the field.

MIREX 2024 Results

See 2024:MIREX2024_Results.

MIREX 2024 Task Descriptions

We will start with a small set of tasks and will expand the list based on the community's feedback. We also welcome volunteers for task captains (TC). The following tasks are currently planned for MIREX 2024:

Traditional MIR tasks

Modern MIR tasks

Call for Challenges

Starting from MIREX 2024, we invite proposals for challenges addressing new research problems from the ISMIR community. These challenges should aim to push the boundaries of current research and foster innovation within the field of music information retrieval.

For the format and requirements for the challenge proposal, please go to 2024:Call for Challenges. This year's call for challenge winner is the singing voice deepfake detection proposal, which has been added to the task list.

How to Participate

  • Read the Participant Agreement and task description carefully.
  • Program your system. For some tasks, a docker image is required for submission. See the Submission Guidelines.
  • Write a 2-4 page extended abstract PDF describing your system.
  • Submit your system and the extended abstract to the new submission portal. Be sure to also check the announcements in the forum of each task.
  • Top-rated teams will be presenting their MIREX posters alongside the LBD session at ISMIR2024. (details will follow)

Important Dates

  • Challenge proposals due: August 7, 2024
  • Notification of acceptance for challenge proposals: August 14, 2024
  • Submission open: September 15, 2024
  • Submission close: around October 25, 2024 (different tasks may vary, see task descriptions for details)
