Song Similarity Subtask

Description

This subtask deals with targeted recommendation. It deals with tag-based radio, audio search, and prestige-ranked browsing (say by genre).

Targeted Search without personalization

Source Data

  • Audio Data
  • Song Tags
  • Artist Tags

Query

Hand-picked playlist of songs describing a particular constraint

Ground Truth

  • Option 1: set of hand-picked ordered playlists
  • Option 2: ranked set of songs by play list co-occurence

Execution

Algorithms recieve the source data and the query playlist. Output is then matched against the ground truth

Evaluation

  • Option 1:
    • Pearsons Correlation (order does not matter) against all play-lists in ground truth, best score is reported
    • Kendall Tau (order matters) same as above
  • Option 2: Numeric output (strength of a recommendation)
    • Mean error
    • Recommendation error
  • Option 2: Ordered sets
    • ROC area
    • Kendall tau
  • Option 2: Unordered sets
    • Pearson correlation
    • F-Measure

Targeted Search with Personalization

This one would be really neat to run, but would require some innovative ground truth...

  • user profiles and user playcounts would be added as source data
  • ground truth playlists on a topic are hand picked from a group of playlists submitted by a LastFM user
  • evaluation is the same as above
