RAVE Model Challenge - Voting phase opens -> February 28

:ballot_box: Vote for the Best RAVE Audio Model! :musical_note:

A unique competition highlights creators who develop AI models to transform sounds and music in real time.

:pushpin: Why Vote?

Your vote helps reward the best models and contributes to building a shared library accessible to everyone!

You can track the evolution of votes throughout the voting period, from February 11 to February 28, 2025.

:trophy: The Rewards

The three most popular models, ranked in descending order, will receive:

:1st_place_medal: €2000 + Premium membership to the Ircam Forum
:2nd_place_medal: €1000 + Premium membership to the Ircam Forum
:3rd_place_medal: €500 + Premium membership to the Ircam Forum

If multiple entries receive the same number of winning votes, their prizes and the following ones will be shared among them. For example:

  • If two candidates tie for the highest score and a third has the next highest, the first two will share (2000+1000)/2 = €1500 each, and the third will receive the third prize of €500.
  • If one candidate has the most votes (€2000 first prize) and three candidates tie for the second-highest votes, their prize will be (1000+500)/3 = €500 each.
