Conversion of image data to musical/audio data has applications in a variety of fields, ranging from sensing augmentation, helping
visually impaired in analyzing pictures, network security and multimedia applications. In the proceeding paragraphs, we review
some of the most relevant contributions for the same.
Some of the papers have methods and algorithms for the same which are tested practically over a variety of data sets, and we
conclude by the end of this paper, which method is the most appropriate to be used and why. We also review papers that talk about
optimization of these algorithms and the input data set.
Since we use the converted musicalized image data in the network security space, we see methodologies for doing so and also to
convert the music back to its original form at the decryption end.
