AllergiesΓÇöTell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to PEG. Also tell your health care professional if you are allergic to any other substances, such as foods, preservatives, or dyes.

PregnancyΓÇöStudies on effects in pregnancy have not been done in either humans or animals. Before taking the PEG-electrolyte solution or having a colon examination, make sure your doctor knows if you are pregnant.

Breast-feedingΓÇöIt is not known whether PEG-electrolyte solution passes into breast milk. Although most medicines pass into breast milk in small amounts, many of them may be used safely while breast-feeding.

Mothers who are taking this medicine and who wish to breast-feed should discuss this with their doctor.

ChildrenΓÇöAlthough there is no specific information comparing use of PEG-electrolyte solution in children with use in other age groups, this medicine is not expected to cause different side effects or problems in children than it does in adults.

Older adultsΓÇöThis medicine has been tested and has not been shown to cause different side effects or problems in older people than it does in younger adults.

Other medicinesΓÇöAlthough certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary. Any other oral medicinesΓÇöAny medicines taken within 1 hour of the PEG-electrolyte solution may be flushed from the body and not have an effect

In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For the PEG-electrolyte solution, the following should be considered:

Audio content:

• 3 databases: Epitonic, Magantune and USPOP2002
• data set should include at least 75 different artists or groups working in any genre
• both live performances and sequenced music are eligible
• Each artist should be represented by a minimum of 10 examples.
• Would be good to enforce some sort of cross-album component for the actual contest to avoid producer detection
• A tuning database will NOT be provided. However the RWC Magnatune database used for the 2004 Audio desciption contest is still available (Training part 1 [1], Training part 2 [2])

Metadata:

• By definition each example must have an artist or group label corresponding to one of the output classes.
• It is assumed that artist labels will be correct
• The genre label may also be supplied
• The training set should be defined by a text file with one entry per line, in the following format (<> should be omitted, used here for clarity):
  <example path and filename>\t<artist label>\t<genre label>\n

2) Output results

• Results should be output into a text file with one entry per line in the following format:
  <example path and filename>\t<artist classification>\n
  

3) Maximum running time

• The maximum running time for a single iteration of a submitted algorithm will be 24 hours (allowing a maximum of 72 hours for 3-fold cross-validation)
