 Introduction
• A number plate is the unique identification of vehicle used to identify vehicles by their own number plates.

• It is the ability to automatic extraction and recognition of a vehicle number plate’s characters from an image.

• ANPR was invented in 1976 at the police scientific development branching the UK.

• Recently this license plate recognition system gets much interest from different researchers and became a
hot issue.

• The rapid increase in the number of vehicles, there is a need to improve the existing systems for
identification of vehicles.

• An automated system became a promising in order to reduce the dependency on labor.

 Cont …

• Automatic number plate recognition solution typically addresses following key issues:

Vehicle Plate location

Presence Where is number
Is a vehicle present? plate in the image ?
OCR
What are the
character on the
number plate ?
 Types of Automatic License Plate Recognition
Automatic license plate recognition system can be described under two predominant
divisions

1. Online or Active ALPR system: - technology like LASER, RADAR, surveillance

cameras and radio frequency are carried out in an effort to perform a successful
identification of the vehicle.

2. Offline or Passive ALPR system:-the identification of vehicle license plate is carried

out by capturing the image of the vehicle and creating and storing those images in
centralized information server.
 Need Of Automatic Number Plate Recognition system
• Due to rapid development of technology and increasing use of vehicles license plate recognition system has
numerous applications.

• To catch vehicles used for crimes

• To catch people who does not follow traffic rules

• To minimize road accidents

• For Car parking management

 Objective
 General Objective :

Develop fast and accurate automated vehicle license plate recognition system for real time application.

 Specific Objective :

• Develop a technique for an automatic vehicle number plate recognition system, which should full-fill
the requirement of a real-time system and efficient in general sense.

• Design and simulate the proposed system.

• Verification of the functionality and effectiveness of the technique in different scenarios using
benchmark images of license plate.
 Software And Hardware Requirement

Software Requirements

Vehicle license plate recognition is a MATLAB based application. The MATLAB platform completely
suits for the development of this project.

 Hardware Requirements

To implement vehicle license plate recognition system it needs a computer with minimum capability
to install MATLAB and a camera. The camera is used to take the picture.
 Base Paper Discussion
In [2018] Gajendra Sharma studied Performance analysis of vehicle number plate recognition system

using template matching techniques.

 Purpose

Recognition and analysis of result Nepal vehicle number plate by template matching Technique using
normalized cross correlations algorithm and phase Correlation algorithm

 Methodology

• Input image : digital camera of 5 mega pixel camera is used. The input images are 1403 × 677 or 1932 ×
2576 or 960 × 960 pixels.

• Number plate extraction: The aim is To find rectangles of plate vehicles. The edge detection was
applied By using sobel edge detector. Morphological algorithm, dilation, and Erosion, opening, closing,
hole filling and filtering algorithm were Used
 Cont…
• Character segmentation: segmentation of plate characters, license Plate is segmented into its constituent parts obtaining the characters

Individually

• performing by first labeling the connected component by 8 connected boundary, then calculate the maximum label and find the row and column

having pixel value

Character Recognition: The Normalized cross correlation and phase correlation method used

 Result :

• Normalized cross correlation method is more accurate to recognize the objects than phase correlation method and recognition
accuracy is 67.98% and 63.46% respectively.
 Cont…
In [2018], Fei xie el.Al proposed robust license plate detection and character recognition
algorithm based on a combined feature extraction model and BPNN.
 Purpose
• Novel license plate detection and character recognition algorithm based on A combined feature extraction
model and BPNN which is adaptable in weak illumination and Complicated backgrounds.
 Methodology
License plate detection and character segmentation algorithm
• Input image ; The original images are captured at a high resolution(1250×750)
• Accurate positioning based on horizontal and vertical Integral projection method.
• Character segmentation using the number of alternating white and black.
• Features extraction based on VTD and HTD Methods.
 Cont…

• License plate characters classification and recognition using back propagation neural network.

 Result

• The proposed method provides a better recognition accuracy and time-consuming performance with
97.7%and 46.1ms.
 Methodology And Work Flow Of The Proposed System

• The proposed model uses the image processing technology and implemented in mat lab. The algorithm is
broadly split into following parts:

 Capture image

 Pre-processing

 Plate region extraction and segmentation of character in the extracted number plate

 Finally character recognition

 Conclusion

Basics techniques of license plate recognition system are studied from downloaded literatures related to
AVNPRS ,two papers selected as core paper for the proposed work. these papers reviewed
comprehensively to understand the purpose, methodology and results proposed by each author gajendra
sharma proposed a technique with accuracy of 67.98% and 63.46% for recognizing Nepal vehicle plate
which has English letter and number. where as fei xie el.al has accuracy of 97.7%. for recognizing Hong
Kong Vehicle plate which has Chinese characters, English letters and numbers that almost similar to
Ethiopian vehicle plate Ethiopian vehicle plate has composed of Amharic character ,English letter and
numbers so this paper is selected as core paper to adopt the methodology for my proposed work to get
high accuracy.
