Rebecca Fiebrink and Ge Wang

SMirK is an open-source toolkit to facilitate rapid development of and experimentation with machine learning and music information retrieval tools. It uses a combination of audio analysis support built into ChucK and feature extraction and learning built in ChucK. (requires version 1.2.1.2 or later).

MATLAB make you wince?
CLAM, MARSYAS won't compile?
Us? We like to SmIRK.
