can tesseract be used in OMR?

[ucee]

Hello all, I'm just curious if tesseract can be used in OMR, if yes, can i get a link to the page that describes it's use? I have a project that involves OMR and deadline is fast approaching.

By OMR, do you mean Optical Music Recognition, or Optical Mark
Recognition? (Or something else?)

If you mean Optical Music Recognition, take a look at Audiveris
(https://audiveris.kenai.com)

If you mean Optical Mark Recognition, take a look at QueXF
(https://code.launchpad.net/quexf)

Tesseract won't be much use in either case, but Audiveris uses
Tesseract for OCR of textual elements in sheet music.
