In this paper, we explore the application of Kodály hand signs in enhancing children’s music education, performances, and auditory assistance technologies. This research focuses on improving the recognition rate of Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) models in identifying Kodály hand sign scales through the integration of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). We developed an enhanced MLP model by augmenting it with additional parameters and optimizing the number of hidden layers, aiming to substantially increase the model’s accuracy and efficiency. The augmented model demonstrated a significant improvement in recognizing complex hand sign sequences, achieving a higher accuracy compared to previous methods. These advancements suggest that our approach can greatly benefit music education and the development of auditory assistance technologies by providing more reliable and precise recognition of Kodály hand signs. This study confirms the potential of parameter augmentation and hidden layers optimization in refining the capabilities of neural network models for practical applications.
