Researchers have introduced Legato 2, a new pipeline designed for advanced recognition and understanding of sheet music. This system utilizes a novel, large-scale neural model that processes sheet music sequentially, line by line, allowing it to handle extended musical pieces more effectively than previous methods. Legato 2 is also the first optical music recognition (OMR) model capable of incorporating embedded textual information like titles and annotations into its symbolic transcriptions. The pipeline combines system-level segmentation with an autoregressive vision-language model (vision-LM) to accurately capture both detailed notation and overall score structure, setting new benchmarks in OMR performance and downstream musical document interpretation.
