Nowadays license plate recognition has been applied in car access control, toll collection and other applications. Even though they exist, car thefts and illegal use of other proprietor’s license plate remain a problem. To deal with this, a computational programmed controlled framework is being developed. Also, facial analysis algorithm is implemented so as to create awareness among the common public. The way forward is to use an improved technology combination of License Plate Detection and Facial Analysis using artificial intelligence, in which vehicle image is captured by high resolution CCD camera and the license plate region is determined by image processing algorithms and facial analysis is done by using FaceNet and TensorFlow. The characters of the license plate is separated by segmentation and processed using the Canny Edge and Blob Coloring algorithm and the facial analysis is done using Facenet of TensorFlow.

 The license plate recognition (LPR) is an important system. LPR is helpful in many ranges such as private or public entrance, parking lots, traffic control and theft surveillance. This paper, offers (LPR) consist of four main stages (preprocessing, license plate detection, segmentation, character recognition) the first stage takes a photo by the camera then preprocessing in this image. License plate detection search for matching of license plate in the image to crop the correct plate. Segmentation performed by divide the numbers separately. The last stage is number recognition by using KNN (K- nearest neighbors) is one of the simple algorithms of machine learning used for matching numbers with training data to provide a correct prediction. The system was implemented using python3.5, open-cv library and shows accuracy performance result equal to 90% by using 50 images.

With the rapid rise of private vehicles around the world, License Plate Recognition (LPR) plays a vital role in supporting the government to manage vehicles effectively. However, an introduction of new types of license plate (LP) or slight changes in the LP format can break previous LPR systems, as they fail to recognize the LP. Moreover, the LPR system is extremely sensitive to the conditions of the surrounding environment. Thus, this paper introduces a novel deep learning-based Korean LPR system that can effectively deal with existing challenges. The main contributions of this study include (1) a robust LPR system with the integration of three pre-processing techniques (defogging, low-light enhancement, and super-resolution) that can effectively recognize the LP under various conditions, (2) the establishment of two original Korean LPR approaches for different scenarios, including whole license plate recognition (W-LPR) and single-character license plate recognition (SC-LPR), and (3) the introduction of two Korean LPR datasets (synthetic data and real data) involving a new type of LP introduced by the Korean government. Through several experiments, the proposed LPR framework achieved the highest recognition accuracy of 98.94%.

Vehicles parked illegally on the highway can limit road space and result in congestion. Thus, illegal parking must be monitored and controlled. In this study, a prototype system for detecting the license plates of parking offenders based on image processing was implemented. The first stage in this system is detecting the license plate, then segmenting each character into a separate image. The next stage is converting the character from image to text format, referred to as automatic license-plate recognition. The goal is to send that detected plate license to the database of the authorities, so that the authorities can discover the identity of the parking offender to impose sanctions. In this study, several conditions of acquisition and variations of edge detection methods were tested. Based on the test results, an accuracy rate of 100% was obtained for license plate detection using the Canny method during the morning, with the camera position at 3 meters high, 2 meters of distance, and a 60o angle.

This work develops an Android-based robot featuring automatic license plate recognition and automatic license plate patrolling. The automatic license plate recognition feature combines 4 self-developed novel methods, Wiener deconvolution vertical edge enhancement, AdaBoost plus vertical-edge license plate detection, vertical edge projection histogram segmentation stain removal, and customized optical character recognition. Besides, the automatic license plate patrolling feature also integrates 3 novel methods, HL2-band rough license plate detection, orientated license plate approaching, and Ad-Hoc-based remote motion control. Implementation results show the license plate detection rate and recognition rate of the Android-based robot are over 99% and over 98%, respectively, under various scene conditions. Especially, the execution time of license plate recognition, including license plate detection, is only about 0.7 second per frame on the Android-based robot.

Most automatic license-plate recognition (ALPR) systems use still images and ignore the temporal information in videos. Videos provide rich temporal and motion information that should be considered during training and testing. This study focuses on creating an ALPR system that uses videos. The proposed system is comprised of detection, tracking, and recognition modules. The system achieved accuracies of 81.473% and 84.237% for license-plate detection and classification, respectively.
