Call for Challenge Proposals
This page is still WIP. We will send an annoucement when it is finalized.
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.
What's new
- We will accept more proposals compared to MIREX 2024.
- All proposed challenges must have an assigned task captain (name+email included).
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.
Hints for Challenge Proposals:
- To invite research groups without access to large datasets or extensive computational resources, you are encouraged to create multiple subtasks that impose different restrictions on model size and dataset usage. Example:
Subtask 1: Model size < 200M. Training set: MusDB18 only. Subtask 2: Model size: any. Training set: any.
- Task captains may use proprietary datasets for evaluation.
Submission Format
A call for challenge proposal must contain the following content:
- Title
- Abstract
- Task description
- Significance of the task
- Evaluation criteria
- Datasets and resources provided
- Requirements for submission
Please submit a 2-4 page PDF to the MIREX organizing committee future-mirex@googlegroups.com. before the due date.
Deadlines
- Challenge proposals due: TBA
- Notification of acceptance: TBA
