Introduce a complete system of license plate recognition: using morphological processing and priori knowledge of license plate to discern the location of license plate, accomplishing tilt correction through Radon transform, then fulfilling character segmentation of accurate positioning license plate by projection, finishing character recognition through BP neural network which was improved by the use of adaptive learning rate and momentum factor. With the programming and verification on Matlab experimental platform, experimental results show that we can have a preferable recognition speed and accuracy.

The paper proposes a sensors platform to control a barrier that is installed for vehicles entrance. This platform is automatized by image-based license plate recognition of the vehicle. However, in situations where standardized license plates are not used, such image-based recognition becomes non-trivial and challenging due to the variations in license plate background, fonts and deformations. The proposed method first detects the approaching vehicle via ultrasonic sensors and, at the same time, captures its image via a camera installed along with the barrier. From this image, the license plate is automatically extracted and further processed to segment the license plate characters. Finally, these characters are recognized with the help of a standard optical character recognition (OCR) pipeline. The evaluation of the proposed system shows an accuracy of 98% for license plates extraction, 96% for character segmentation and 93% for character recognition.

The license plate recognition technology is an important part of the construction of an intelligent traffic management system. This paper mainly researches the image preprocessing, license plate location, and character segmentation in the license plate recognition system. In the preprocessing part of the image, the edge detection method based on convolutional neural network (CNN) is used for edge detection. In the design of the license plate location, this paper proposes a location method based on a combination of mathematical morphology and statistical jump points. First, the license plate area is initially located using mathematical morphology-related operations and then the location of the license plate is accurately located using statistical jump points. Finally, the plate with tilt is corrected. In the process of character segmentation, the border and delimiter are first removed, then the character vertical projection method and the character boundary are used to segment the character for actually using cases.

In this paper, the embedded license plate recognition system based on TMS320DM642 is researched. During the design, median filter, threshold, and morphology closing operations are used to obtain license plate region, then segmented into disjoint characters for the character recognition phase, where the template matching is used to identify the characters. Embedded License Plate Recognition System, being smaller, has less power consumption with respect to software based LPR systems. The resulting hardware is suitable for applications where cost, compactness, and efficiency are system design constraints.


License plate recognition system plays very important role in various security aspects which includes entry monitoring of a particular vehicle in commercial complex, traffic monitoring , identification of threats and many more. In past few years many different methods has been adopted for license plate recognition system but still there is little more chance to work on real time difficulties which come across while license plate recognition like speed of vehicle, angle of license plate in picture, background of picture or color contrast of image, reflection on the license plate and so on. The combination of object detection, image processing, and pattern recognition are used to fulfill this application. In the proposed architecture , system will capture a small video and using Google's OCR(Optical Character Recognition) system will recognize license number, if that number get found in database gate will get open with the help of Arduino Uno.

In order to meet the need of real-time and dynamic monitoring of intelligent transportation, a License Plate Recognition (LPR) System Based on ARM S3C2440 is introduced and a vehicle license recognition system is designed and realized. This thesis comparatively explains the tasks and problems and dose analytic research across all phases of the system. Image binary and slant rectification also be discussed, which are difficulty points in LPR. According to the study of the license plate images, we use hough transformation and image reverse rotation , a inclined rectification method was proposed. The experimental results show that the approach is excellent in the accuracy with rapid speed and is in the robustness.

In order to achieve the exact location and character recognition of license plate, firstly, this paper got binary image of license plate and done edge detection with differential operation. Secondly, it searched the license plate binary image after difference for the horizontal and vertical cut point, and determined the best cutting threshold through the experiment. Finally, it made the character segmentation by vertical projection, the recognition of license plate characters with the use of BP neural network, whose overall recognition rate is at 95.3%, and the display interface design for program transfer and results display. The experimental results showed that the location of license plate was exact and the character recognition rate was high.
