Staff Line Detection by Skewed Projection
نویسنده
چکیده
Most optical music recognition systems start image analysis by the detection of staff lines. This work explores simple techniques from document image analysis, such as line segment extraction, to guide the staff line identification process. Specifically, the overall document skew is computed from the detected line segments. Staff lines are then projected in the direction of the detected skew and identified as maxima in the histogram of projections. The method is simple to code and robust even for unrealistically large rotations of the input data.

Skewed Mirror Symmetry in the 3D Reconstruction of Polyhedral Models
We aim to reconstruct three-dimensional polyhedra from axonometric line drawings. Existence of mirror symmetry in polyhedra can assist the reconstruction process. We present a new approach for determining planes of mirror symmetry of such polyhedral objects based on prior detection of their planar faces and any axes of symmetry of these faces. The axes are obtained from skewed facial symmetries...
متن کاملDetecting Skewed Symmetries
Many surfaces of objects in our world are bounded by planar bilaterally symmetric gures. When these gures are imaged under orthographic projection a skewed symmetric contour results. In this paper a new fast, local method to recover skewed symmetries from curve segments is proposed. It can be applied to complete as well as to occluded contours. Furthermore, the skewed symmetry property is emplo...
متن کاملShape from Contour Using Symmetries
Kanade [1] proposed a heuristic for interpreting shape from contour. To apply his heuristic, skewed symmetries have to be found. In this paper, an algorithm for finding skewed symmetries in a planar point set is proposed. The method requires a simple rotation and midpoint finding, followed by a Hough transform. A variant of the Hough transform is reported. It is based on interpreting it as a ro...
متن کاملOutlier detection for skewed data
Most outlier detection rules for multivariate data are based on the assumption of elliptical symmetry of the underlying distribution. We propose an outlier detection method which does not need the assumption of symmetry and does not rely on visual inspection. Our method is a generalization of the Stahel-Donoho outlyingness. The latter approach assigns to each observation a measure of outlyingne...
متن کاملStaff Line Detection and Removal with Stable Paths
Many music works produced in the past are currently available only as original manuscripts or as photocopies. Preserving them entails their digitalization and consequent accessibility in a machine-readable format, which encourages browsing, retrieval, search and analysis while providing a generalized access to the digital material. Carrying this task manually is very time consuming and error pr...
