The next step is to improve the performance of the cusp-finding code, with work-in-progress for using Taylor models instead of interval arithmetic.
I’ve been using this library (in tandem with the companion brush-stroking library, using Cairo as a rendering backend) to generate (vector!) shakuhachi scores like the following:
