Automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) is the extraction of vehicle license plate information from an image or a sequence of images. The extracted information can be used with or without a database in many applications, such as electronic payment systems (toll payment, parking fee payment), and freeway and arterial monitoring systems for traffic surveillance. The illuminated images are bett...

Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) systems capture a vehicle‟s license plate and recognize the license number and other required information from the captured image. ALPR systems have numbers of significant applications: law enforcement, public safety agencies, toll gate systems, etc. The goal of these systems is to recognize the characters and state on the license plate with high accur...

Automatic License Plate Recognition system is a real time embedded system which automatically recognizes the license plate of vehicles. There are many applications ranging from complex security systems to common areas and from parking admission to urban traffic control. Automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) has complex characteristics due to diverse effects such as of light and speed. Most...

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) techniques have been applied to forensic science databases, such as fingerprints, bullets and cartridge cases of firearms, drug tablet, etc. Similar techniques are also extended to video data. Automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) is one of the most important applications. In Taiwan, ALPR has been equipped in many intelligent surveillance systems. It he...

Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) has many applications in traffic systems (highway electronic toll collection, red light violation enforcement, border and customs checkpoints, etc.). License Plate Recognition is an effective form of AVI systems. In this study, a smart and simple algorithm is presented for vehicle’s license plate recognition system. The proposed algorithm consists of three...

Rapid advancement of technology in artificial intelligence and computer science knowledge and then feel the need to search and secure automated systems are because of the appearance of intelligent systems based on image processing and spread this knowledge. One of these intelligent systems is license plate recognition (LPR) system. LPR plays an important role in intelligent transportation syste...

License Plate Recognition Systems are used to determine the license plate number of a vehicle. The current system mainly uses Optical Character Recognition to recognize the number plate. There are several problems to this system. Some of them include interchanging of several letters or numbers (letter ‘O’ with digit ‘0’), difficulty in localizing the license plate, high error rate, use of diffe...

License plate character recognition is an integral part in Intelligent Transportation Systems. Traditional methods used for number plate recognition were OCR, Optical Character Recognition and Formula Based Recognition. As Neural Network is an intelligence engine, it ensures greater accuracy rate along with better recognition speed. In this system, recognition is done with the help of Neural Ne...
