Research on License Plate Recognition Based on Template Matching Method

Abstract:

With the rapid development of transportation, more application of computer, communication and intelligent detection technology appeared in transportation field. The license plate recognition system based on template matching is researched in this paper. The preprocessing to the image such as binarization, tilt compensation and edge extraction has been finished, and then the positioning and segmentation of image are realized. After the normalization to the image, the license plate recognition result based on template matching method is obtained through experiments.
