Research and Design of License Plate Recognition System

Article Preview

Abstract:

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.
