Welcome to MIREX 2013

This is the main page for the ninth running of the Music Information Retrieval Evaluation eXchange (MIREX 2013). The International Music Information Retrieval Systems Evaluation Laboratory (IMIRSEL) at the Graduate School of Library and Information Science (GSLIS), University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) is the principal organizer of MIREX 2013.

The MIREX 2013 community will hold its annual meeting as part of The 14th International Conference on Music Information Retrieval, ISMIR 2013, which will be held in Curitiba, PR, Brazil, the 4-8 November, 2013. The MIREX plenary and poster sessions will be held during the conference.

J. Stephen Downie
Director, IMIRSEL


New Task Leadership Model

In response to discussions at ISMIR 2012, we are prepared to improve the distribution of tasks for the upcoming MIREX 2013. To do so, we really need leaders to help us organize and run each task.

To volunteer to lead a task, please add your name to the "Captains" column on the new 2013:Task Captains page. Please direct any communication to the EvalFest mailing list.

What does it mean to lead a task?

  • Update wiki pages as needed
  • Communicate with submitters and troubleshooting submissions
  • Execution and evaluation of submissions
  • Publishing final results

Due to the proprietary nature of much of the data, the submission system, evaluation framework, and most of the datasets will continue to be hosted by IMIRSEL. However, we are prepared to provide access to task organizers to manage and run submissions on the IMIRSEL systems.

We really need leaders to help us this year!


MIREX 2013 Deadline Dates

This year, we have a single deadline for all submissions. Submissions for all tasks are due by:

3 September 2013

Nota Bene: In the past we have been rather flexible about deadlines. This year, however, we simply do not have the time flexibility, sorry.

Please, please, please, let's start getting those submissions made. The sooner we have the code, the sooner we can start running the evaluations.

PS: If you have a slower running algorithm, help us help you by getting your code in ASAP. Please do pay attention to runtime limits.

MIREX 2013 Possible Evaluation Tasks


Note to New Participants

Please take the time to read the following review articles that explain the history and structure of MIREX.

Runtime Limits

We reserve the right to stop any process that exceeds runtime limits for each task. We will do our best to notify you in enough time to allow revisions, but this may not be possible in some cases. Please respect the published runtime limits.


Note to All Participants

Because MIREX is premised upon the sharing of ideas and results, ALL MIREX participants are expected to:

  1. submit a DRAFT 2-3 page extended abstract PDF in the ISMIR format about the submitted programme(s) to help us and the community better understand how the algorithm works when submitting their programme(s).
  2. submit a FINALIZED 2-3 page extended abstract PDF in the ISMIR format prior to ISMIR 2013 for posting on the respective results pages (sometimes the same abstract can be used for multiple submissions; in many cases the DRAFT and FINALIZED abstracts are the same)
  3. present a poster at the MIREX 2013 poster session at ISMIR 2013


Software Dependency Requests

If you have not submitted to MIREX before or are unsure whether IMIRSEL currently supports some of the software/architecture dependencies for your submission a dependency request form is available. Please submit details of your dependencies on this form and the IMIRSEL team will attempt to satisfy them for you.

Due to the high volume of submissions expected at MIREX 2013, submissions with difficult to satisfy dependencies that the team has not been given sufficient notice of may result in the submission being rejected.


Finally, you will also be expected to detail your software/architecture dependencies in a README file to be provided to the submission system.

Getting Involved in MIREX 2013

MIREX is a community-based endeavour. Be a part of the community and help make MIREX 2013 the best yet.


Mailing List Participation

If you are interested in formal MIR evaluation, you should also subscribe to the "MIREX" (aka "EvalFest") mail list and participate in the community discussions about defining and running MIREX 2013 tasks. Subscription information at: EvalFest Central.

If you are participating in MIREX 2013, it is VERY IMPORTANT that you are subscribed to EvalFest. Deadlines, task updates and other important information will be announced via this mailing list. Please use the EvalFest for discussion of MIREX task proposals and other MIREX related issues. This wiki (MIREX 2013 wiki) will be used to embody and disseminate task proposals, however, task related discussions should be conducted on the MIREX organization mailing list (EvalFest) rather than on this wiki, but should be summarized here.

Where possible, definitions or example code for new evaluation metrics or tasks should be provided to the IMIRSEL team who will embody them in software as part of the NEMA analytics framework, which will be released to the community at or before ISMIR 2013 - providing a standardised set of interfaces and output to disciplined evaluation procedures for a great many MIR tasks.


Wiki Participation

If you find that you cannot edit a MIREX wiki page, you will need to create a new account via: Special:Userlogin.

Please note that because of "spam-bots", MIREX wiki registration requests may be moderated by IMIRSEL members. It might take up to 24 hours for approval (Thank you for your patience!).
