Staff line detection and revision algorithm based on subsection projection and correlation algorithm

Staff line detection plays a key role in OMR technology, and is the precon-ditions of subsequent segmentation 1& recognition of music sheets. For the phenomena of horizontal inclination & curvature of staff lines and vertical inclination of image, which often occur in music scores, an improved approach based on subsection projection is put forward to realize the detection of original staff lines and revision in an effect to implement staff line detection more successfully. Experimental results show the presented algorithm can detect and revise staff lines fast and effectively.
