Abstract :
As one of the focal points and hot problems of studying modern traffic engineering, the license plate recognition (LPR) has attracted more and more attention. In this paper, an experimental for the LRP of China-style license plates is presented. The proposed consists of four phases: license plate location, image preprocessing, character division, and character recognition. This is effective on solving the problems which are Chinese character unconnected, cement of the character, illumination variance, interference of the noise and space mark.
