SUMMARY:NEW VISIONS For Music & Sound 2024 – A new kind of music conference for the future music ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:AES Germany has a new partner association:the MUSICTECH Germany (Bundesverband Musiktechnologie Deutschland eV) .They just announced that they are bringing a new kind of music conference to Berlin. \n\n\n\nHappening on September 5 + 6\, 2024 in the heart of Berlin\, NEW VISIONS For Music & Sound focuses on innovation for the music ecosystem. \n\n\n\nWhat makes this 2-day event different from other music conferences is\, that instead of discussing the status quo of the industry\, we are inviting only visionary people from different disciplines of the music and tech sector who will share their ideas\, showcase solutions\, and discuss opportunities for the future of music and its industry.  \n\n\n\nIt’s going to be a gathering of fantastic artists\, founders\, researchers\, technologists\, and music industry veterans\, all on a mission to make the music ecosystem fit for the future.AES members will get discounts and early notice of their meetings. For voucher codes get us an email  \n\n\n\nmore details

SUMMARY:Call for Papers deadline for the NeurIPS 2024 Workshop on Audio Imagination: AI-Driven Speech\, Music\, and Sound Generation
DESCRIPTION:See: https://audio-imagination.github.io/ \n\n\n\nAudio Imagination Workshop \n\n\n\nGenerative AI has been at the forefront of AI research in recent times\, with numerous studies showcasing remarkable and surprising generation capabilities across various modalities such as text\, image\, and audio. Audio Imagination Workshop at NeurIPS 2024 aims to bring the latest advancements in generative AI focusing on audio generation. Audio generation presents unique challenges due to the nature of the audio signal\, its perception by humans\, and its relationship with other modalities like text and visuals. Modern generative methods have brought about new opportunities for solving well-studied audio generation problems\, such as text-to-speech synthesis\, while also leading to explorations of exciting new problems. The workshop seeks to bring together researchers working on different audio generation problems and facilitate concentrated discussions on the topic. It will feature engaging invited talks\, high-quality papers presented through oral and poster sessions\, and a demo session to showcase the current state of audio generation methods. \n\n\n\nCall For Papers \n\n\n\nWe invite submissions for Main Paper and Demo Tracks. Please go to Submission Page for more details. \n\n\n\nFeel free to contact the organizers if you have any question regarding the workshop. \n\n\n\nThe Audio Imagination Workshop at the Thirty-Eighth Annual Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS 2024) aims to bring together researchers working in the field of generative AI for audio\, speech\, music\, including multimodal generative AI with audio as one of the modalities. \n\n\n\nWe invite researchers to submit papers focusing on\, but not limited to\, the following topics related to audio generation: \n\n\n\n\nTextual prompts and natural language inputs based generation and editing of audio\, such as text-to-speech (i.e.\, speech synthesis)\, text-to-music and text-to-sound\n\n\n\nAudio/Speech in LLMs/Multimodal LLMs\n\n\n\nConnection of audio generation with text generation\, including similarities and differences.\n\n\n\nVideo to Audio/Speech/Music Generation\n\n\n\nMultimodal generation of audio – going beyond unimodal inputs (text/video/audio) to audio — using multiple modalities for generating audio\n\n\n\nData for audio/speech/music generative AI\n\n\n\nGenerative methods for and its impact on established speech tasks such as speech enhancement\, source separation\, voice conversion\, speech to speech translation\, to mention a few\n\n\n\nGeneration of spatial audio and experiences driven by spatial audio.\n\n\n\nGeneration of audio for virtual or augmented reality (VR/AR)\n\n\n\nSynchronized Generation of audio along with visuals\n\n\n\nImpact of generative audio on media and content creation technologies\n\n\n\nInterpretability in generative AI for audio/speech/music.\n\n\n\nResponsibility in generative AI for audio/speech/music.\n\n\n\nNovel applications of audio/speech/music generation\n\n\n\n\nWe welcome submissions from researchers in academia and industry. The workshop will provide a platform for discussing the latest advances in the field and identifying future research directions. \n\n\n\nWe invite submission in two tracks\, Main Paper Track and Demo Track. The submission process and details are outlined below. Please reach out to the organizers for any questions/confusion. \n\n\n\nMain paper track \n\n\n\nThe main paper track is the primary submission track for the Audio Imagination workshop and will facilitate discussions on relevant topics. Accepted papers will be presented through oral talks or poster sessions. Please note that Audio Imagination is an in-person workshop and papers are expected to be presented in person. \n\n\n\nDemo Session \n\n\n\nA key component of the Audio Imagination workshop is that we will also hold a demo session\, where participants will have a chance to showcase their advanced audio generation methods and technologies. The demo track will enable listening experiences for workshop participants which is critical to understand\, evaluate and contextualize generated audio. The demo session will be conducted alongside poster sessions. \n\n\n\nPlease Check Out the Submissions Page for details on paper formatting and submission details. \n\n\n\nImportant Dates \n\n\n\n\nSeptember 18th – Main Paper Submission Deadline\n\n\n\nSeptember 21st – Demo Paper Submission Deadline\n\n\n\nOctober 9th – Paper & Demo Acceptance Notification\n\n\n\nDecember 14th – Workshop \n\n\n\n\nOrganisers: \n\n\n\nAnurag Kumar\, Research Lead and Scientist at Meta\, USA \n\n\n\nZhaoheng Ni\, Research Scientist at Meta\, USA \n\n\n\nYapeng Tian\, Assistant Professor at The University of Texas at Dallas\, USA \n\n\n\nBerrak Sisman\, Assistant professor at The University of Texas at Dallas\, USA \n\n\n\nWenwu Wang\, Professor at University of Surrey\, United Kingdom \n\n\n\nShinji Watanabe\, Associate Professor at Carnegie Mellon University\, USA \n\n\n\nPlease feel free to circulate this call information.
