ISMIR 2007 - Programme Overview

TUTORIALS
The ISMIR 2007 tutorials take place on Sunday,
September 23rd.

Sun, 10:00-13:00 (Room HS 6):
Tutorial 1: Synchronization and Matching
Techniques for Music Data
by Meinard Müller and Roger B. Dannenberg
Modern digital music libraries contain large amounts of
textual, visual, and audio data as well as a variety of
associated data representations, which describe music at
various semantic levels. Typically, for a single musical work,
there is a large number of relevant digital documents, which
are given in various digital formats and in multiple
realisations. For example, in the case of Beethoven's Fifth
Symphony, a digital music library may contain the scanned
pages of some particular score edition. Or the score may be
given in a digital music notation file format, which encodes
the page layout of sheet music in a machine-readable form.
Furthermore, the library may contain various CD recordings
such as the interpretations by Karajan and Bernstein, some
historical recordings by Furtwängler and Toscanini, Liszt's
piano transcription of Beethoven's Fifth played by Glenn
Gould, as well as a synthesised version of a corresponding
MIDI file. On the one hand, this complexity and
heterogeneity of music data make content-based browsing
and retrieval in digital music libraries a challenging task. On
the other hand, the availability of different semantically
interrelated representations can be exploited to ease many
music processing tasks, e.g., by using high-level symbolic
information as a-priori knowledge in audio processing tasks.
In this tutorial, we will give a detailed overview of state-ofthe-art MIR techniques for automatic music alignment,
synchronisation, and matching. The common goal of these
tasks is to automatically link several types of music
representations, thus coordinating the multiple information
sources related to a given musical work.

Sun, 10:00-13:00 (Room HS 7):
Tutorial 3: Introduction to MIRToolbox
by Olivier Lartillot
MIRtoolbox is an integrated set of functions written in
Matlab, dedicated to the extraction of musical features from
audio files. The tutorial will provide an overview of the set of
features that can be extracted with MIRtoolbox, illustrated
with specific examples. The objective is to offer both a
synthesis of the approaches in musical feature extraction
from audio, and a detailed introduction to the toolbox. We
will first describe the elementary mathematical operators
commonly used for feature extraction (FFT, autocorrelation,
filterbank, etc.) and show how advanced techniques can be
applied directly to these operators in order to improve the
results and fit them to particular purposes. A detailed
overview of the numerous features available in MIRtoolbox
will then be given, structured according to the main musical
dimensions (pitch, tonality, rhythm, timbre, form, etc.). The
tutorial will explain how to perform these operations in the
Matlab environment, and how to benefit from the diverse
options available for each feature extractor. Examples will
show how to perform the different successive steps of these
analyses using a series of simple commands. Distinctive
aspects of the toolbox will be highlighted and illustrated,
such as the simplicity and adaptability power of the syntax.
Various tools for statistical analysis, segmentation and
clustering will be presented. Finally, we will explain how to
write new functions that can take benefit from the building
blocks offered by the toolbox, and that can be articulated
with other Matlab toolboxes.

Sun, 15:00-18:00 (Room HS 6):
Tutorial 2: Music Recommendation
by Oscar Celma and Paul Lamere
As the world of online music grows, music recommendation
systems become an increasingly important way for music
listeners to discover new music. Commercial recommenders
such as last.fm and Pandora have enjoyed commercial and
critical success. But how well do these systems really work?
How good are the recommendations? How far into the ‘long
tail’ do these recommenders reach? In this tutorial we look
at the current state-of-the-art in music recommendation.
We examine current commercial and research systems,
focusing on the advantages and the disadvantages of the
various recommendation strategies. We look at some of the
challenges in building music recommenders and we explore
some of the ways that MIR techniques can be used to
improve future recommenders.

Sun, 15:00-18:00 (Room HS 7):
Tutorial 4: Techniques for Implementing
the Generative Theory of Tonal Music
by Keiji Hirata, Satoshi Tojo and Masatoshi Hamanaka
This tutorial on Techniques for Implementing GTTM will
summarise the entire body of work related to computational
approaches to the GTTM and report it in a comprehensive
way to MIR researchers and computational musicologists. If
one wants to realise MIR based on musical semantics, the
techniques used for implementing GTTM can provide a
powerful tool. Furthermore, the tutorial will put a special
focus on perspectives for future deployments, and
discussion will be encouraged with experts in the audience.
