- Assertion
- Score followers can be evaluated subjectively, by checking whether events are recognised with a latency that respects the composer's intentions, or objectively against reference alignments, counting missed and falsely detected events and measuring latency; the time needed to recover after a performer's wrong notes is another measure. Tolerable error depends on the application and musical style.
- Quote
A subjective or qualitative evaluation of a score follower means that the important performance events are recognised with a latency that respects the intention of the composer [...]. error labels can be due to the miss of a correct label at a given moment, or to the false alarm of a label incorrectly given. [...] Again, the tolerable number of mistakes and latencies of the follower largely depend on the kind of application and the type of musical style involved. [...] human errors will occur, suggesting as another measure the time needed by the score follower to recover from an error situation, that is, to resynchronise itself after a number of wrong notes are played.
