Computer vision library for western music sheet notations

Abstract

This paper discusses a computer vision system to detect western music notations from images. The developed library will take in images of western music sheet notation and identify the key features necessary to extract the notes. The images will go through several pre-processing stages and then using straight line detection techniques the staff and notes will be detected. The paper will discuss the algorithms used and developed to achieve this. Finally the paper will present the accuracy measures in the developed system for different types of images.
