Vehicle license plate recognition method based on deep convolution network in complex road scene

Abstract

The license plate robust recognition algorithm in complex road scene has both theoretical and practical values. The existing license plate recognition algorithm can achieve better recognition results under ideal road scenes such as moderate light intensity, good shooting angle, and clear license plate target, but in complex road scenes such as fast speed, blurred aging of license plates, and low illumination such as rainy days, the effectiveness of the license plate recognition algorithm still needs to be improved. Based on the realistic requirements of license plate recognition algorithm and in-depth analysis of the principle of deep convolution network, we designed a deep convolution network for Chinese characters, letters, and numbers in the license plate to automatically learn the essential features of the image to make up for the limitation of the artificial feature recognition of the traditional license plate recognition algorithm. At the same time, according to the convolution kernel, downsampling, and nonlinear operation of the deep convolution network, the nonlinear abstraction ability of the license plate character feature is improved. The experimental results show that the proposed method can quickly and accurately identify the license plate character in complex road scenes. The recognition accuracy is better than the existing license plate recognition algorithm, which improves the accuracy of license plate recognition and achieves an ideal license plate recognition effect.

Fast Localization and High Accuracy Recognition of Tire Surface Embossed Characters Based on CNN

“…Reference [9] proposed a scale based on convolutional neural networks unchanged by convolutional neural networks to solve the problem of image scale changes and realize the positioning and recognition of characters. Reference [10] presented a deep convolutional network structure of its own design. This structure has a good improvement effect on character recognition through the non-linear operation of convolution kernel, lower sampling, and deep convolutional networks.…”

Recognition of Vehicle License Plate Based on Hopfield Artificial Neural Network

“…Grayscaling converts an original image into a gray-scaled image for a more accurate and faster recognition of characters on license plates than the original method. (3) There are several methods of grayscaling: maximum value method, average method, and weighted average method. (4) Among these methods, the weighted average method is regarded as the most appropriate.…”
