DESCRIPTION:Join us for a 9I制作厂免费 School of Information Studies (SIS) Semina
 r Series talk on challenges\, opportunities\, and research related to digi
 tizing music collections with guest speaker Dr. Ichiro Fujinaga\, Associat
 e Professor in the Music Technology Area at the Schulich School of Music.聽
 \n\n\n	ABSTRACT\n\nThe main goal of the research program of the Distributed
  Digital Music Archives and Libraries Laboratory is to develop and evaluat
 e practices\, frameworks\, and tools for the design and construction of wo
 rldwide distributed digital music archives and libraries.\n\nOver the last
  few millennia\, humans have amassed an enormous amount of information and
  cultural material that is scattered around the world. It is becoming abun
 dantly clear that the optimal path for the acquisition of this material is
  to distribute the task of digitizing the wealth of historical and cultura
 l heritage material that exists in analogue formats\, which may include bo
 oks\, manuscripts\, music scores\, maps\, photographs\, videos\, analogue 
 tapes\, and phonograph records. In order to achieve this goal\, libraries\
 , museums\, and archives throughout the world\, large or small\, need well
 -researched policies\, proper guidance\, and efficient tools to digitize t
 heir collections and to make them available economically.\n\nThe research 
 conducted within the program addresses unique and imminent challenges pose
 d by the digitization and dissemination of music media. In this talk vario
 us projects conducted at our laboratory will be presented\; including larg
 e-scale optical music recognition\, workflow management for automatic meta
 data extraction of LP recordings\, creation of ground truth for structural
  and chord analysis of music\, evaluation of digitization methods for anal
 ogue recordings\, and digital prosopography of Renaissance musicians.\n\n
 \n	BIO\n	Ichiro Fujinaga is an Associate Professor in the Music Technology A
 rea at the Schulich School of Music at 9I制作厂免费.聽 He has Bachelor
 's degrees in Music/Percussion and Mathematics from University of Alberta 
 and a Master's degree in Music Theory and a Ph.D. in Music Technology from
  9I制作厂免费. Research interests include music theory\, machine lear
 ning\, music perception\, optical music recognition\, digital signal proce
 ssing\, genetic algorithms\, and music information acquisition\, preservat
 ion\, and retrieval.\n\nThis talk is free and open to the public. Please a
 rrive early to secure a seat.\n
