Is anyone interested in working on OMR in Julia?

> Optical music recognition (OMR) is a field of research that investigates how to computationally read musical notation in documents. The goal of OMR is to teach the computer to read and interpret sheet music and produce a machine-readable version of the written music score. Once captured digitally, the music can be saved in commonly used file formats, e.g. MIDI (for playback) and MusicXML (for page layout).

I am interested, but I don’t have experience collaborating in a project. I program in Julia and I’m learning Data Science.
