Abstract :
This paper presents an effective license plate location algorithm, which employs Mathematical morphology to extract the number plate from the complicated-background image. Mathematical morphology is a new method which is applied in this filed of image treatments and pattern recognition. The basic mind is using structure element to measure and extract corresponding Shape of image and finally in reach to the aim of image analysis and recognition.
