Abstract

With the popularity of intelligent transportation system, license plate recognition system has been widely used in the management of vehicles in and out of closed communities. But in the natural environment such as video monitoring, the performance and accuracy of recognition are not ideal. In this paper, the improved Alex net convolution neural network is used to remove the false license plate in a large range of suspected license plate areas, and then the projection transformation and Hough transformation are used to correct the inclined license plate, so as to build an efficient license plate recognition system in natural environment. The proposed system has the advantages of removing interference objects in a large area and accurately locating the license plate. The experimental results show that the localization success rate is 98%, and our system is feasible and efficient.
