CALL FOR PAPERS
MOTIVATION
Machine learning and artificial intelligence have permeated nearly
every area of music informatics, driven by a profusion of
recordings available in digital audio formats, steady improvements
to the accessibility and quality of symbolic corpora, availability
of powerful algorithms in standard machine learning toolboxes, and
theoretical advances in machine learning and data mining. As the
complexity of the problems investigated by researchers on machine
learning and music increases, there is a need to develop new
algorithms and methods. As a consequence, research on machine
learning and music is an active and growing field reflected in
international meetings such as the International Workshops on
Machine Learning and Music (MML): 2008 (ICML, Helsinki, Finland),
2009 (ECML, Bled, Slovenia), 2010 (ACM-MM, Florence, Italy), 2011
(NIPS, Sierra Nevada, Spain), 2012 (ICML, Edinburgh, Scotland),
2013 (ECML/PKDD, Prague, Czech Republic), 2014 (Barcelona, Spain),
2015 (ISEA, Vancouver, Canada), 2016 (ECML/PKDD, Riva del Garda,
Italy), 2017 (Barcelona, Spain), 2018 (ICML, Stockholm, Sweden),
2019 (ECML, Würzburg, Germany), 2020 (ECML-PKDD, virtual), and
2021 (Barcelona and online)..
TOPICS
Papers in all applications on music and machine learning are
welcome, including but not limited to generative music systems,
intelligent music learning systems, machine learning applications
to music learning, automatic classification of music (audio and
MIDI), style-based interpreter recognition, automatic composition
and improvisation, music recommender systems, genre and tag
prediction, score alignment, polyphonic pitch detection, chord
extraction, pattern discovery, music analysis, beat tracking,
expressive performance modeling, deep learning for music
processing.
Audio demonstrations are encouraged when indicated by the content
of the paper.
