Description
The Music Information Retrieval Evaluation eXchange (MIREX) is an annual evaluation campaign for Music Information Retrieval (MIR) algorithms, coupled to the International Society (and Conference) for Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR). MIREX is hosted by the International Music Information Retrieval Systems Evaluation Laboratory (IMIRSEL) at the Graduate School of Library Information Sciences (GSLIS) which is part of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC).
Current and Future MIREXs are in part facilitated by the work of the Networked Environment for Music Analysis (NEMA) project. The NEMA projects aims to automate and expose the workings of MIREX and MIR experimentation/evaluation to the MIR community, helping to deal with issues of collection/data/code sharing within the community by handling issues relating to copyright and IP restrictions by allowing MIR researchers to work (remotely) with resources without having to obtain licenses to the content/code.
