Submission portal:  openreview.net/group?id=NeurIPS.cc/2025/Workshop/AI4Music

Call for Papers

We call for original 4-page papers (excluding references) on relevant topics of AI and music, broadly defined. We encourage and welcome papers discussing initial concepts, early results, and promising directions. All accepted papers will be presented in the poster and demo session. A small number of papers will be selected for 10-min spotlight presentations. The review process will be double-blind.

Call for Demos

We call for demos of novel AI music tools and artistic work. Each demo submission will be accompanied by a 2-page extended abstract (excluding references). We encourage the authors to submit an optional short video recording (no longer than 10 min) as supplementary materials. The selected demos will each be assigned a poster board in the poster and demo session. The goal of the demo session is to accommodate the various forms that novel AI music innovations may take, and thus we will adopt a single-blind review process.
