| − | ==Announcing the KETI/Illinois ''K-MIREX Collaboration''== | + | ==MIREX 2025 Task Descriptions== |
| | | | |
| − | The MIREX team at the University of Illinois is very proud to announce its new <b><i>K-MIREX Collaboration</i></b> with the research team led by Chai-Jong Song of the Digital Media Research Center at the Korea Electronics Technology Institute (KETI) [http://www.keti.re.kr/e-keti/ http://www.keti.re.kr/e-keti/]. Song and his KETI colleagues will be taking the lead on running the 2013 <b>Query by Singing/Humming (QBSH)</b> and <b>Audio Melody Extraction (AME) Tasks </b>. We do not foresee any special deviations from traditional MIREX submission procedures for these two tasks. Should they arise, participants will be informed.

Welcome to MIREX 2025
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 Daejeon, South Korea from September 21-25, 2025.
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 2025 Task Descriptions
To be announced.
Call for Challenges
Starting with MIREX 2024, we invite the ISMIR community to propose new research challenges that address cutting-edge problems in Music Information Retrieval (MIR). These challenges should aim to push the boundaries of current research and foster innovation in the field.
We also welcome challenge sponsors from both industry and research institutions, particularly those willing to contribute datasets and computational resources to support the competition.
For the format and requirements for the challenge proposal, please go to 2025:Call for Challenges.
What's new:
Beginning in MIREX 2025, all proposed challenges must have an assigned task captain responsible for evaluating participant submissions. Additionally, task captains may use proprietary datasets for evaluation.
Task Captain Responsibilities:
- Register on the MIREX Wiki and maintain a task description page.
- Collect submissions via the MIREX submission server (or provide customized submission instructions).
- Execute and evaluate the submissions.
- Report results to MIREX and create a results page on the MIREX Wiki.
- (Optional) Present a MIREX task captain poster at the Late-Breaking and Demo (LBD) session at ISMIR 2025.
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 extended abstract through the submission portal (to be announced). Check individual task forums for updates.
- Top-performing teams will have the opportunity to present their MIREX posters at the LBD session at ISMIR 2025.
Important Dates
