Drawing inspiration from object detection, a conditional neural network architecture is proposed that directly predicts x,y coordinates of the matching positions in a complete score sheet image at each point in time for a given musical performance. Experiments are conducted on a synthetic polyphonic piano benchmark dataset and the new method is compared to several existing approaches from the literature for sheet-image-based score following as well as an Optical Music Recognition baseline. The proposed approach achieves new state-of-the-art results and furthermore significantly improves the alignment performance on a set of real-world piano recordings by applying Impulse Responses as a data augmentation technique.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2105.04309v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2105.04309v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"multi-modal-conditional-bounding-box","repo_url":"https://github.com/CPJKU/cyolo_score_following","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"data-augmentation","task_name":"Data Augmentation"},{"task_slug":"object-detection","task_name":"Object Detection"},{"task_slug":"object-detection-1","task_name":"object-detection"},{"task_slug":"regression-1","task_name":"regression"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
