Short post, a formal announcement will be sent on music-ir and other mailing lists, but the contest is live! Check it out on Kaggle.
Quick reminder, it is a music recommendation contest around the Taste Profile subset, and everything is open about the data! You have the song titles and artists, all the data in the MSD, any other data source you can think of, ... everything! Recommendations can be made using collaborative filtering, content-based analysis, web-crawling, human oracles, animal oracles, ... if it scales to 110K users, you should try it!
Thanks to Brian and Gert @ CAL Lab, Dan @ LabROSA, IMIRSEL, Kaggle, The Echo Nest, and everyone else that made this contest possible.
Looking forward to your recommendations!
