The optical music recognition is a key problem for coding music sheets of western music in the digital world. The most critical phase of the optical music recognition process is the first analysis of the image sheet. In optical processing of music or documents, the first analysis consists of segmenting the acquired sheet into smaller parts in order to recognize the basic symbols that allow reconstructing the original music symbol. In this chapter, an overview of the main issues and a survey of the main related works are discussed. The O3MR system (Object Oriented Optical Music Recognition) system is also described. The used approach in such system is based on the adoption of projections for the extraction of basic symbols that constitute graphic elements of the music notation. Algorithms and a set of examples are also included to better focus concepts and adopted solutions.

This paper describes about one of the many extension of Optical Character Recognition (OCR), that is Optical Music Recognition (OMR). OMR is used to recognize musical sheets into digital format, such as MIDI or MusicXML. There are many musical symbols that usually used in musical sheets and therefore needs to be recognized by OMR, such as staff; treble, bass, alto and tenor clef; sharp, flat and natural; beams, staccato, staccatissimo, dynamic, tenuto, marcato, stopped note, harmonic and fermata; notes; rests; ties and slurs; and also mordent and turn. OMR usually has four main processes, namely Preprocessing, Music Symbol Recognition, Musical Notation Reconstruction and Final Representation Construction. Each of those four main processes uses different methods and algorithms and each of those processes still needs further development and research. There are already many application that uses OMR to date, but none gives the perfect result. Therefore, besides the development and research for each OMR process, there is also a need to a development and research for combined recognizer, that combines the results from different OMR application to increase the final result’s accuracy.

Traditional optical music recognition (OMR) is an important technology that automatically recognizes scanned paper music sheets. In this study, traditional OMR is combined with robotics, and a real-time OMR system for a dulcimer musical robot is proposed. This system gives the musical robot a stronger ability to perceive and understand music. The proposed OMR system can read music scores, and the recognized information is converted into a standard electronic music file for the dulcimer musical robot, thus achieving real-time performance. During the recognition steps, we treat note groups and isolated notes separately. Specially structured note groups are identified by primitive decomposition and structural analysis. The note groups are decomposed into three fundamental elements: note stem, note head, and note beams. Isolated music symbols are recognized based on shape model descriptors. We conduct tests on real pictures taken live by a camera. The tests show that the proposed method has a higher recognition rate.

This paper presents the applications and practices in the domain of music imaging for musical scores (music sheets and music manuscripts), which include music sheet digitisation, optical music recognition (OMR) and optical music restoration. With a general background of Optical Music Recognition (OMR), the paper discusses typical obstacles in this domain and reports currently available commercial OMR software. It reports hardware and software related to music imaging, discussed the SharpEye optical music recognition system and provides an evaluation of a number of OMR systems. Besides the main focus on the transformation from images of music scores to symbolic format, this paper also discusses optical music image restoration and the application of music imaging techniques for graphical preservation and potential applications for cross-media integration.

Optical Music Recognition (OMR) is a technique for converting printed musical documents into computer readable formats. In this paper, we present a simple OMR system that can perform well for ordinary musical documents such as ballad and pop music. This system is constructed based on fundamental image processing and pattern recognition techniques, thus it is easy to implement. Moreover, this system has a strong capability in skew restoration and inverted musical score detection. From a series of experiments, the error for our skew restoration is below 0.2° for any possible document rotation and the accuracy of inverted musical score detection is up to 98.89%. The overall recognition accuracy of our OMR can achieve to nearly 97%, a figure comparable with current commercial OMR software. However, if taking into image skew into consideration, our system is superior to commercial software in terms of recognition accuracy.
