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: Unlimited model size, Training set: any.
- Task captains may use proprietary datasets for evaluation.
Submission Format
A call for challenge proposal must contain the following content:
- Title
