Research on License Plate Recognition Based on Information Fusion

Abstract

The information capacity of the characters on the license plate images affects the accuracy of recognition directly. To improve the recognition rate of vehicle license, considering the low cost of installing cameras nowadays, this thesis put forwards that, adopting images from two cameras in different angles. the license plate location, character division and feature extraction process are done separately, and then information fusion technique is used to confirm the more reliable recognition result, which can reduce the error recognition rate of characters. The contrast experiments show that this method can improve the accuracy of license plate recognition.
