Influences of ISMIR and MIREX Research on Technology Patents

چکیده
Much of the current Music Information Retrieval (MIR) research aims to contribute to the field by creating practical music applications or algorithms that can be used as part of such applications. Understanding how academic research results influence and translate to commercial products can be useful for MIR researchers, especially when we try to measure the impact of our research. This study aims to improve our understanding of the commercial influence of academic MIR research by analyzing the patents citing publications from ISMIR (International Society for Music Information Retrieval) Conference proceedings and its associated MIREX (Music Information Retrieval Evaluation eXchange) MIR algorithm trials. In this paper, we provide our preliminary analyses of the relevant patents as well as the ISMIR publications that are referenced in those patents.

The Impact of MIREX on Scholarly Research (2005 - 2010)
This paper explores the impact of the MIREX (Music Information Retrieval Evaluation eXchange) evaluation initiative on scholarly research. Impact is assessed through a bibliometric evaluation of both the MIREX extended abstracts and the papers citing the MIREX results, the trial framework and methodology, or MIREX datasets. Impact is examined through number of publications and citation analysis...

متن کاملCross Task Study on MIREX Recent Results: An Index for Evolution Measurement and Some Stagnation Hypotheses
In the last 20 years, Music Information Retrieval (MIR) has been an expanding research field, and the MIREX competition has become the main evaluation venue in MIR field. Analyzing recent results for various tasks of MIREX (MIR Evaluation eXchange), we observed that the evolution of task solutions follows two different patterns: for some tasks, the results apparently hit stagnation, whereas for...
متن کاملMirex 2007 Combining Audio and Symbolic Descriptors for Audio Music Similarity and Retrieval
At ISMIR 2007 we propose a new approach for an extended feature set for Audio Music Information Retrieval: We transcribe audio data into a symbolic form using a transcription system, extract symbolic descriptors from that representation and combine them with multiple audio features. In the ISMIR paper we show that by this method we are able to further improve music genre classification. At MIRE...
متن کاملMirex 2011 - Ams Task: Multi Descriptor Based Algorithm
A method for the estimation of music similarity based on a combination of timbre, rhythm and tonal content of the songs, is presented in this report. The rhythm is estimated by evaluating the frequency distribution of the tempo pattern of the songs, while the tonal content is estimated by the calculation of an averaged chroma profile of the song. The algorithm is proposed to be submitted to the...
