Car plate recognition by neural networks and image processing

Abstract: In this paper we describe an experimental system for the recognition of Italian-style car license plates. Images are usually taken from a camera at a toll gate and preprocessed by a fast and robust 1-D DFT scheme to find the plate and character positions. Characters are classified by a multilayer neural network trained by the recently developed BRLS learning algorithm. The same neural network replaces both the traditional feature extractor and the classifier. The percentage of correctly recognized characters r… Show more

“…Parisi et al (1998) [28] propose an application of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) to find the license plate. DFT is a transform for Fourier analysis of finitedomain discrete-time signals that can be computed efficiently in practice using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm.…”

“…DFT is a transform for Fourier analysis of finitedomain discrete-time signals that can be computed efficiently in practice using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm. The authors in [28] scan the image horizontally and vertically and use the average periodogram estimate of the signal as a statistic to detect the license plate region. Acosta (2004) [4] proceeds similarly and computes the periodogram estimate using the FFT, for each row to locate vertically, then each column to locate horizontally.…”
