Claim 8:
9. The method of claim 6, wherein the step of identifying cells of the matrix corresponding to line pixels comprises:
identifying adjacent cells having the first value as linked cells, the adjacent cells corresponding to pixels being adjacent in one of a horizontal direction or a vertical direction of the digital image;
identifying linked cells having a number of cells exceeding a threshold as a chain of cells;
grouping adjacent chains of cells into a group of chains;
determining a dimension of the group of chains; and
comparing the dimension with a dimension threshold;, wherein, if the dimension is above the dimension threshold, determining that pixels corresponding to linked cells of the group of chains correspond to a line of a stave if the adjacent cells corresponding to pixels being adjacent in a horizontal direction of the digital image or a stem of a note if the adjacent cells correspond to pixels being adjacent in a vertical direction of the digital image.
