SGER: Creating a Music Information Retrieval (MIR) Development and Testing Environment

摘要建议：IIS-0327371机构：伊利诺伊大学PI：John Downie标题：SGER：创建音乐信息检索(MIR)开发和测试环境音乐信息检索(MIR)是一个迅速崛起的研究领域，需要新的专业知识和方法。正在创建的并且通常可通过互联网获得的数字音乐信息量一直在以指数速度增长，并促使信息检索领域内的新方法来处理这一独特的内容。该项目将构建世界上第一个试验性的、国际上可访问的音乐信息测试和开发数据库环境。PI与唱片行业的版权持有者密切合作，将丰富的内容集引入测试环境。语料库将超过，可能是数TB的混合媒体内容，以确保测试环境反映“真实世界”的情况。主要工作包括研究与系统设计和开发相关的重要问题，以支持建立、搜索和保存音乐信息所需的独特功能，同时确保版权所有者的独特要求。摘要建议：IIS-0340597机构：伊利诺伊斯大学PI：John DownieTitle：音乐信息检索评估研讨会这项建议是举办一个研讨会，作为今年夏天在多伦多举行的第26届国际ACM SIGIR会议的一部分。音乐信息检索(MIR)是一个迅速崛起的研究领域，需要新的专业知识和方法。正在创建并经常通过互联网获得的数字音乐信息量一直在以指数速度增长，并促使信息检索领域内的新方法来处理这一独特的内容。SIGIR会议是关于信息检索的一次重要会议，为许多本来可能无法参加的人提供了参加讲习班的机会。2002年7月的两次会议(JCDL)和2002年10月的两次会议(ISMIR)为这次讲习班提供了宝贵的背景资料，并表明人们对iMusic信息检索的兴趣日益浓厚。

AbstractProposal : IIS-0327371Institution: University of IllinoisPI: John DownieTitle: SGER: Creating a Music Information Retrieval (MIR) Developmentand Testing EnvironmentMusic Information Retrieval (MIR) is a rapidly emerging research area requiring new expertise and approaches. The amount of digital music information being created and often avaialble via the internet has been increasing at exponential rates and has prompted new approaches within the field of information retrieival to deal with this unique content. This project will construct the world's first, experimental, internationally-accessible testing and development database environment, for music information. The PI has worked closely with rights-holders in the recording industry to incorportate a rich set of content into the testing environment. The corpus of material will exceed, potentially multi-terabytes of mixed-media content ensuring that the testing environment reflects "real-world" situations. The principal work involves research exploring important issues related to systems design and development to support unique functionalities required in building, searching and preserving music infomration, while simultaneously ensuring the unique requirements of rights-holders.AbstractProposal : IIS-0340597Institution: University of IllinoisPI: John DownieTitle: Workshop on the Evaluation of Music Information RetrievalThis proposal is to convene a workshop as part of the 26th Annual International ACM SIGIR Conference to be held in Toronto this summer. Music Information Retrieval (MIR) is a rapidly emerging research area requiring new expertise and approaches. The amount of digital music information being created and often available via the internet has been increasing at exponential rates and has prompted new approaches within the field of information retrieival to deal with this unique content. The SIGIR Conference is a major meeting on information retrieval and affords many the opportunity to participate in the workshop who might otherwise not be able to attend. Two earlier meetings in July 2002 (JCDL) and October 2002 (ISMIR) have provided valuable background for this workshop and demonstrated the intense and growing interest in imusic information retrieval.
