Projection Profile Based Number Plate Localization and Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes algorithms to localize vehicle number plates from natural background images, to segment the characters from the localized number plates and to recognize the segmented characters. The reported system is tested on a dataset of 560 sample images captured with different background under various illuminations. The performance accuracy of the proposed system has been calculated at each stage, which is 97.1%, 95.4% and 95.72% for localisation & extraction, character segmentation and character recognition respectively. The proposed method is also capable of localising and recognising multiple number plates in images.

For many years, researchers have studied high accuracy methods for recognizing the handwriting and achieved many significant improvements. However, an issue that has rarely been studied is the speed of these methods. Considering the computer hardware limitations, it is necessary for these methods to run in high speed. One of the methods to increase the processing speed is to use the computer pa...
متن کاملA Design Flow for Robust License Plate Localization and Recognition in Complex Scenes
In this paper, we present a new design flow for robust license plate localization and recognition. The algorithm consists of three stages: 1) license plate localization; 2) character segmentation; and 3) feature extraction and character recognition. The algorithm uses Mexican hat operator for edge detection and Euler number of a binary image for identifying the license plate region. A pre-proce...
