The annual conference of the International Society for Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR) is the world’s leading interdisciplinary forum on accessing, analyzing, and organizing digital music of all sorts. The ISMIR conference embraces the complexity and diversity of music by showcasing ideas and applications that enhance the way in which we interact with music. Centered around MIR, the conference aims to foster dialogue across disciplines by bringing together researchers, developers, educators, librarians, students and professionals, providing multifaceted interaction and cross-fertilization that will benefit a wide range of related fields. More information about ISMIR can be found from: http://www.ismir.net/.
Music-Information Retrieval (Music-IR) is a wide-ranging area of study and includes elements from the disciplines of musicology, machine learning, signal processing, cognitive science, library and information science, music therapy, and many others. At ISMIR 2017 we aim to present work covering the state-of-the-art of this entire field of study, allowing researchers from every branch of this field to exchange ideas, compare results, and initiate collaborations. In addition, ISMIR 2017 will be hosting tutorials and workshops. Traditionally there are also musical and social events in the conferences such as unconference, concerts, jam sessions, Women in MIR (WiMIR) sessions, banquets and receptions. Please visit the ISMIR 2017 website for more details: https://ismir2017.smcnus.org/
ISMIR 2017 accepts submissions for: Conference papers; Tutorials; Late-breaking papers & demos, and Musical performances on the following (but not limited to) topics:
Music-IR data and fundamentals such as:

Alignment, synchronization, and score following
Automatic transcription
Music synthesis, transformation, and augmentation
Fingerprinting
Applications for Music-IR such as:
Music-IR for health and therapy
Music-IR for learning
Music-IR for indexing, querying, and retrieving music
Music-IR for pattern matching and detection
Music-IR for determining similarity
Music-IR for music recommendation
Music-IR for music training
Music-IR for gaming
Music-IR for enhanced performances
Music-IR for business and marketing
Music-IR for digital libraries and archives
Domain-specific knowledge such as:

Representations of music
Methodological and social concerns such as:
Corpus creation
Annotation methodology
Evaluation methodology
Legal issues
Ethical issues
User-based concerns such as:
User behavior
User modeling
Human-computer interfaces
All papers go through a double-blind review. Each paper will be assigned at least three reviewers per submission. All accepted papers will be presented at ISMIR 2017 as either a poster or an oral presentation. The Program Committee will determine which submissions will be presented orally and which will be presented as posters; this determination will not be based on the relevance or potential impact of the papers, but rather on the content and the best method to reach each paper’s intended audience. Each paper may have a maximum of six pages of scientific content (including figures and possible references) and additional pages which may only contain references and acknowledgment.
ISMIR 2017 offers sponsorship opportunities at Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze levels. Be sure to take this opportunity and become a proud sponsor of the conference, where you can showcase your company’s latest products and development to an international crowd of MIR researchers/practitioners, and learn about the state-of-the-art research and technologies in MIR.
