License plate recognition is an application-specific optimization in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software which enables computer systems to read automatically the License Plates of vehicles from digital images. This thesis discusses the character extraction from the respective License Plates of vehicles and problems in the character extraction process. An OCR based training algorithm named k-nearest neighbor with predefined OpenCV libraries is implemented and evaluated in the BeagleBone Black Open Hardware. In an OCR, the character extraction involves certain steps which include Image acquisition, Pre-processing, Feature extraction, Detection/ Segmentation, High-level processing, Decision making. A key advantage of the method is that it is a fairly straightforward technique which utilizes from k-nearest neighbor algorithm segments normalized result as a format in text. The results show that training an image with this algorithm gives better results when compared with other algorithms.

In today’s world managing the records of attendance of staffs, students, employee or bus is a tedious task. This project focuses on automating the bus attendance process through vehicle license plate recognition. As, the license plate is a feature that is peculiar to every vehicle, it would help in efficiently marking the bus attendance. The bus attendance system using RFID is a time consuming process. Hence we developed a project to efficiently mark attendance using number plate recognition and OCR. The system was trained using faster RCNN model with bus image dataset. The proposed system is the number plate is captured through surveillance camera and the captured image will be passed as an input to the neural network for training and the number plate will be detected. Character extraction is done using OCR and extracted character matched will be checked with the database and the attendance for particular bus will be marked.


The Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) is a mass reconnaissance strategy that utilizations optical character recognition on images to peruse the license plates on vehicles. The car number plate detection has the various phases like pre-processing, segmentation and classification. In the previous work, the morphological operation is applied for the car number plate detection. The morphological operation has the low accuracy for the car number plate detection. In the proposed work, the region based segmentation and K-nearest neighbor classification is applied for the character recognition. The proposed is implemented in MATLAB and results are analyzed in terms of accuracy.

Balinese script is an important aspect that packs the Balinese culture from time to time which continues to experience development along with technological advances. Balinese script consists of three types (1) Wrésastra, (2) Swalalita and (3) Modre which have different types of characters. The Wrésastra and Swalalita script are Balinese scripts which grouped into the script criteria that are used to write in the field of everyday life. In this research, the zoning method will be implemented in the feature extraction process to produce special features owned by Balinese script. The results of the feature extraction process will produce special features owned by Balinese script which will be used in the classification process to recognize the character of Balinese script. Special features are produced using the zoning method, it will divide the image characters area of ??Balinese scripts into several regions, to enrich the features of each Balinese script. The result of feature extractions is stored as training data that will be used in the classification process. K-Nearest Neighbors is implemented in the special feature classification process that is owned by the character of Balinese script. Based on the results of the test, the highest level of accuracy was obtained using the value K=3 and reference=10 with the accuracy of Balinese script recognition 97.5%.

The growth in computer vision technology has aided society with various kinds of tasks. One of these tasks is the ability of recognizing text contained in an image, or usually referred to as Optical Character Recognition (OCR). There are many kinds of algorithms that can be implemented into an OCR. The K-Nearest Neighbor is one such algorithm. This research aims to find out the process behind the OCR mechanism by using K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm; one of the most influential machine learning algorithms. It also aims to find out how precise the algorithm is in an OCR program. To do that, a simple OCR program to classify alphabets of capital letters is made to produce and compare real results. The result of this research yielded a maximum of 76.9% accuracy with 200 training samples per alphabet. A set of reasons are also given as to why the program is able to reach said level of accuracy.

This study was designed to assess the Kurzweil Reading Machine's ability to read three different type styles produced by five different means. The results indicate that the Kurzweil Reading Machines tested have different error rates depending upon the means of producing the copy and upon the type style used; there was a significant interaction between copy method and type style. The interaction indicates that some type styles are better read when the copy is made by one means rather than another. Error rates varied between less than one percent and more than twenty percent. In general, the user will find that high quality printed materials will be read with a relatively high level of accuracy, but as the quality of the material decreases, the number of errors made by the machine also increases. As this error rate increases, the user will find it increasingly difficult to understand the spoken output.

Each of music which has been created, has its own mood which is emitted, therefore, there has been many researches in Music Information Retrieval (MIR) field that has been done for recognition of mood to music.  This research produced software to classify music to the mood by using K-Nearest Neighbor and ID3 algorithm.  In this research accuracy performance comparison and measurement of average classification time is carried out which is obtained based on the value produced from music feature extraction process.  For music feature extraction process it uses 9 types of spectral analysis, consists of 400 practicing data and 400 testing data.  The system produced outcome as classification label of mood type those are contentment, exuberance, depression and anxious.  Classification by using algorithm of KNN is good enough that is 86.55% at k value = 3 and average processing time is 0.01021.  Whereas by using ID3 it results accuracy of 59.33% and average of processing time is 0.05091 second.


The vehicles playing the vital role in our day to day life for transport, and some of the vehicles violates the traffic rules are also increasing, vehicle theft, unnecessary entering into highly restricted areas, increased number of accidents lead to increase in the rate of crime slowly. The vehicle had its own identity it should be recognized which plays the major role in the world. For recognition of the vehicles which are used commonly in the field of safety and security system, LPDR plays a major role and the vehicle registration number is recognized at some certain distance accurately. License Plate recognition is the most efficient and cost effective technique used for detection and recognition purposes. Automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) is used for finding the location of the license plate in the vehicle. These methods and techniques vary based on the conditions like, quality of the image, vehicle on a fine-tuned position, effects of lighting, type of image, etc. The objective is to design an efficient automatic conveyance identification system of sanctioned or unauthorized in the residential societies by utilizing the conveyance number plate. By getting the car image from the surveillance camera in the entrance, we recognizing the number plate and the characters are extracted using OCR (optical character recognition). It converts the character in the image to plain text. Then the plain text of the license plate is cross-verified with the database to check whether the vehicle belongs to residents or visitor. It sends the alert message to the security official when a new visitor request method in a residential area. The log details are stored separately for the resident and visitor in the database. It also provides the details about the parking area availability in the residential area. By calculating the number of vehicles in and out of the area, the detail or availability parking slot is displayed and it sis robust to the size, lighting effects with high rate of detection.
