O Prof. Rui Pedro Paiva e o investigador Renato Panda foram os vencedores da edição deste ano do MIREX, na tarefa de classificação de emoções em música áudio ( Audio Train/Test: Mood Classification). O MIREX (Music Information Retrieval Evaluation eXchange) é um evento internacional organizado anualmente desde 2004 pela comunidade científica de Music Information Retrieval (MIR) visando comparar o desempenho dos diversos algoritmos em várias tarefas de MIR. A relevância deste resultado é tanto maior pelo facto do MIREX ser o evento por excelência onde a comunidade MIR avalia os avanços na área, com a participação de investigadores dos melhores laboratórios da área a nível internacional, tanto da academia como da indústria.
