Proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Reading Music Systems
The International Workshop on Reading Music Systems (WoRMS) is a workshop
that tries to connect researchers who develop systems for reading music, such
as in the field of Optical Music Recognition, with other researchers and
practitioners that could benefit from such systems, like librarians or
musicologists.
The relevant topics of interest for the workshop include, but are not limited
to: Music reading systems; Optical music recognition; Datasets and performance
evaluation; Image processing on music scores; Writer identification; Authoring,
editing, storing and presentation systems for music scores; Multi-modal
systems; Novel input-methods for music to produce written music; Web-based
Music Information Retrieval services; Applications and projects; Use-cases
related to written music.
These are the proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Reading Music
Systems, held online on Nov. 18th 2022.Comment: Proceedings edited by Jorge Calvo-Zaragoza, Alexander Pacha and Elona

Towards Automatic Classification of Sheet Music
Automatic music classification has been of interest since digital data about music became available within the Web. For this task, different automatic classification approaches have been proposed but all existing approaches are based on the analysis of sounds. To the best of our knowledge, there is no automatic solution that considers only the sheet music for classification. Therefore, within the following study, we introduce a machine-learning based approach in order to assign an author to new sheet music. Different features, that best represent the style of a writer has been extracted, and are given in input for training to a kNN algorithm. In addition, the article discusses the results and cases when the classifier fails to assign the right author
