Automatic License Plate Recognition

The system of automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) is a combination of software and hardware technologies implementing ALPR algorithms. It seems to be easy to achieve the goal but recognition of license plate requires many difficult solutions to some non-trivial tasks. If the license plate is oriented horizontally, uniformly lighted, has a clean surface, clearly distinguishable characters, then it’ll be not too difficult to recognize such a license plate. However, the reality is much worse. The lighting of each part of the plate isn’t equal; the picture from the camera is noisy. Besides, the license plate can have a big angle relative to the camera and be dirty. These obstacles make it difficult to recognize the license plate characters and determine their location on the image. For instance, the accuracy of recognition is much worse on large camera angles. To solve these problems, the developers of automatic license plate recognition systems use a different approach to processing and analysis of images. The work shows an automatic license plate recognition system, which increases the recognition accuracy at large camera angles. The system is based on the technology of recognition of images with the use of highly accurate convolutional neural networks. The proposed system improves stages of normalization and segmentation of an image of the license plate, taking on large camera angles. The goal of improvements is to increase of accuracy of recognition. On the stage of normalization, before histogram equalization, the affine transformation of the image is performed. For the process of segmentation and recognition, Mask R-CNN is used. As the main segment-search algorithm, selective search is chosen. The combined loss function is used to fasten the process of training and classification of the network. The additional module to the convolutional neural network is added for solving the interclass segmentation. The input for this module is generated feature tensor. The output is segmented data for semantic processing. The developed system was compared to well-known systems (SeeAuto.USA and Nomeroff.Net). The invented system got better results on large camera shooting angles.

Automatic License Plate Recognition

In present day scenario the security and authentication is very much needed to make a safety world. Beside all security one vital issue is recognition of number plate from the car for Authorization. In the busy world everything cannot be monitor by a human, so automatic license plate recognition is one of the best application for authorization without involvement of human power. In the proposed method we have make the problem into three fold, firstly extraction of number plate region, secondly segmentation of character and finally Authorization through recognition and classification. For number plate extraction and segmentation we have used morphological based approaches where as for classification we have used Neural Network as classifier. The proposed method is working well in varieties of scenario and the performance level is quiet good.

Automatic License Plate Recognition

The Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) has been becoming a new trend in transportation systems automation. The extraction of vehicle’s license plate can be done without human intervention. Despite such technology has been widely adopted in developed countries, developing countries remain a far-cry from implementing the sophisticated image and video recognition for some reasons. This paper discusses the challenges and possibilities of implementing Automatic License Plate Recognition within Indonesia’s circumstances. Previous knowledge suggested in the literature, and state of the art of the automatic recognition technology is amassed for consideration in future research and practice.

Automatic License Plate Recognition

Purpose This paper aims to present a bio-inspired neural network for improvement of information processing capability of the existing artificial neural networks. Design/methodology/approach In the network, the authors introduce a property often found in biological neural system – hysteresis – as the neuron activation function and a bionic algorithm – extreme learning machine (ELM) – as the learning scheme. The authors give the gradient descent procedure to optimize parameters of the hysteretic function and develop an algorithm to online select ELM parameters, including number of the hidden-layer nodes and hidden-layer parameters. The algorithm combines the idea of the cross validation and random assignment in original ELM. Finally, the authors demonstrate the advantages of the hysteretic ELM neural network by applying it to automatic license plate recognition. Findings Experiments on automatic license plate recognition show that the bio-inspired learning system has better classification accuracy and generalization capability with consideration to efficiency. Originality/value Comparing with the conventional sigmoid function, hysteresis as the activation function enables has two advantages: the neuron’s output not only depends on its input but also on derivative information, which provides the neuron with memory; the hysteretic function can switch between the two segments, thus avoiding the neuron falling into local minima and having a quicker learning rate. The improved ELM algorithm in some extent makes up for declining performance because of original ELM’s complete randomness with the cost of a litter slower than before.
