A field stands on two legs: algorithms & data. Sharing the #ISMIR2025 Classical Test-of-Time Award is the legendary Masataka Goto for his 2006 AIST Annotations for the RWC Database.📜 This work provided THE benchmark dataset for a generation of MIR research. A monumental contribution that enabled progress across the field. A true honor to celebrate this work tonight! #TestOfTime #MIR #OpenData #GroundTruth

Honoring a true classic from the archives! The #ISMIR2025 Classical Test-of-Time Award goes to Meinard Müller et al. for their 2005 paper, "Audio Matching via Chroma-Based Statistical Features." 🎼 This paper introduced a robust chroma feature that revolutionized audio matching for classical music. Two decades later, it remains a pillar of the field. Truly foundational work. Congratulations! #TestOfTime #MIR #ChromaFeatures #ClassicalMusic

As #ISMIR2025 winds down, it's the perfect time to celebrate the ideas that have shaped our field. A huge congratulations to Brian McFee, Eric J. Humphrey, and Juan P. Bello for receiving the 10-Year Test-of-Time Runner-Up award! 🏆⏳ Their 2015 paper, "A Software Framework For Musical Data Augmentation," introduced a concept that is now a cornerstone of modern audio machine learning. By providing a framework to expand datasets with musically-aware perturbations, they paved the way for the robust, data-hungry models we see today. It's hard to imagine training a state-of-the-art audio model now without data augmentation. A truly foundational paper and a well-deserved honor! #ISMIR2025 #TestOfTime #DataAugmentation #MIR #MachineLearning #AudioML

And the winner of the ISMIR 2025 10-Year Test-of-Time Award is... a true landmark in rhythmic analysis! ✨🏆 A huge, heartfelt congratulations to Florian Krebs, Sebastian Böck, and Gerhard Widmer for their paper, "An Efficient State-Space Method for Joint Tempo and Meter Tracking." This work provided a brilliant and elegant "drop-in replacement" for beat and meter tracking systems that achieved a rare triple-win: it was more accurate, drastically faster, and more memory-efficient. A decade later, its influence is still felt in the robust and practical tools our community relies on. This paper set a new standard for a fundamental MIR task. A truly deserving winner! #ISMIR2025 #TestOfTimeAward #BeatTracking #MIR #SignalProcessing #LandmarkPaper

It’s incredibly exciting to see this win the Best Student Paper Award at #ISMIR2025, especially as South Korea was one of the five key regions in their study! A huge congratulations to Harin Lee, Elif Çelen, Peter Harrison, Manuel Anglada Tort, Pol Van Rijn, Minsu Park, Marc Schönwiesner, and Nori Jacoby for their essential work on "GlobalMood: A cross-cultural benchmark for music emotion recognition." They address a major bias in AI by creating a new dataset with music from 59 countries and annotations from diverse cultures (including the U.S., France, Mexico, Egypt, and S. Korea). Their bottom-up approach, which allowed participants to use their own emotion terms, is a game-changer for building AI that truly understands global music.

A huge congratulations to the winners of the Best Student Paper Award at #ISMIR2025! 🏆 Kudos to Ben Hayes, Charalampos Saitis, and György Fazekas for their fantastic work: "Audio synthesizer inversion in symmetric parameter spaces with approximately equivariant flow matching." Ever heard a synth sound and wondered how to recreate it? It's a notoriously hard problem because different knob settings can create the same sound. This paper offers a brilliant solution, using generative models that understand a synth's inherent symmetries (like swappable oscillators). Their method significantly outperforms baselines on a complex, real-world synth, Surge XT!

Are AI models for music truly listening, or just good at guessing? This critical question is at the heart of the latest Best Paper Award winner at #ISMIR2025! Huge congratulations to Yongyi Zang, Sean O'brien, Taylor Berg Kirkpatrick, Julian McAuley, and Zachary Novack for their paper, "Are you really listening? Boosting Perceptual Awareness in Music-QA Benchmarks." They expose how current benchmarks can be solved without genuine audio perception—even by text-only models! Their new framework, RUListening, creates evaluations that force models to prove they're actually hearing the music. A vital step forward for robust AI evaluation.

Huge congratulations to Darius Afchar, Gabriel Meseguer Brocal, Kamil Akesbi, and Romain Hennequin for winning the Best Paper Award at #ISMIR2025! 🏆 In their paper, "A Fourier Explanation of AI-music Artifacts," they tackle one of the biggest challenges in generative AI: detection. They mathematically prove that AI models like Suno and Udio leave a fundamental "fingerprint"—tiny, predictable spikes in the frequency spectrum. This allows for a simple, interpretable detector that surpasses 99% accuracy, providing a transparent alternative to current black-box systems. Groundbreaking work for audio forensics and AI ethics!
