Wednesday, 27 January 2010. So in a touch more than 48hrs I'll be hoping on a plane to go the Stockholm MusicHackday. It should be excellent, if the last one I went to. Is any judge. I'll be joined by fellow ISMS. The hack is being formulated, but may involve The World Bank's api. And some yet to be determined sources of listener statistics. Also, somehow the echonest's api. Will be involved because I need to leave stockholm with one of these. Links to this post. A bit about playlists and similarity.

Saturday, 29 May 2010. Publications on playlists in ISMIR. So for this year's ISMIR I'll be doing another tutorial. This one is entitled " Finding A Path Through The Jukebox – The Playlist Tutorial. And I'll be presenting it with Paul Lamere. First I did a simple title search using the tool at ismir.net. This shows that from 2000 - 2009 there were 14 papers with 'playlist' occurring somewhere in the title. Here they are over time:. Well, now we're getting somewhere! The normalization didn't seem to chang...

Which was followed by what I thought was a reasonable request. I'd love to bui...

Tuesday, 21 December 2010. I finally submitted my phd thesis. I'll post some bits of it over the next few weeks, and the whole thing after my viva. To start, here's the abstract:. If a near-complete collection of recorded music is available what does one listen to next? While the world of music distribution underwent a revolution, the ubiquitous access and availability it created brought new problems in recommendation and discovery. Links to this post.

Wednesday, 19 August 2009. Compiling bleeding edge SciPy on Mac OS X. I do most of my number crunching computing task with SciPy. If you've ever wanted to see what SciPy is all about, this is the easiest way to do so. Optional) If you don't want to build universal python modules remove " -arch ppc -arch i386. In the python library Makefile, which should live somewhere around here: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/lib/python2.6/config/Makefile. Download and install gFortran as a patch.

Sunday, 21 March 2010. Hi blog readers. You may notice a slight change of scenery and the addition of some links just above the main text body. The links go the the other parts of my homepage and the color scheme shift is to keep everything consistent. I'm not much of a designer so I'll happily take any critique of the color scheme and such. Links to this post. Monday, 1 March 2010. IEEE-THEMES - shameless self promotion-. I'm going to be presenting work at IEEE-THEMES. A workshop collocated with ICASSP.
