본 논문은 개인용 휴대장비인 디지털카메라등을 통하여 차량의 앞/뒤 번호판을 자동인식하며 인식된 결과를 텍스트 형식으로 결과를 사용자에게 통보함은 물론, 입력된 차량의 정보를 부호화하고 통신망을 통하여 원격지 서버로 전달하고 원격지 서버는 복호화과정을 거쳐 전송된 텍스트 형태의 차량번호를 확인하여 차량에 대한 정보를 제공하는 시스템이다. 이는 급증하는 차량범죄 및 차량통제, 도난차량검거, 수배차량추적등 많은 분야에 효과적으로 사용이 가능하며 무선 및 도로교통에 많은 편의성과 효율성을 제고할 수 있다고 사료된다.

This paper presents how to recognize the new-type vehicle license plate using multi-link recognizer after extract the features from characters. In order to assist this task, this paper proposed FE-MCBP to recognize each character that got through image preprocess, extract range of vehicle license plate and extract process of each character. FE-MCBP is the recognizer based on the features of the character, The recognizer is employed to identify the new-type vehicle licence plates which have both the hangul and the arabic numeral characters. And its recognition rate is improved 9.7 percent than the back propagation recognizer before. Also it makes use of extract of linear component and region coordinate generation technology to normalize a image of the tilted vehicle license plate. The recognition system of the new-type vehicle license plate make possible recognize a image of the tilted vehicle license plate when using this system. Also, this system can recognize the tilted or imperfect vehicle licence plates.

본 논문은 자동차의 번호판 인식 시스템의 한 부분인 번호판 추출과 자모 분리를 통한 문자 인식까지의 과정을 실험한 것이다. 본 논문은 gray-level에서 영상을 실험하였고, 번호판을 추출하기 위해서 morphology를 반복 적용하고 크기 보정을 통해 번호판을 추출하며, hough transform을 이용한 크기 재보정을 통해 최종적으로 번호판을 추출한다. 그리고, 문자 인식 단계에서는 먼저 hough transform을 사용하여 한글의 모음의 시작점을 얻고, 문자 특징을 이용하여 자음과 모음을 분리하여 모음을 인식한다.

This paper proposes recognition system using multi-backpropagation neural networks rather than single backpropagation neural network to enhance the rate of character recognition resultsing from extracting the region of velhicle number in that the image of vehicle number plate from CCD camera has a distinguish feature, that is, illumination of a pattern. The experiment in this paper shows an output that the method using multi-backpropagation neural networks rather than signal backpropagation neural network takes less training time for computation and also has higher recognition rage of vehicle number.

Recently, artificial intelligence parking control systems have increased the recognition rate of vehicle license plates using deep learning, but there is a problem that they cannot determine vehicles with fake license plates. Despite these security problems, several institutions have been using the existing system so far. For example, in an experiment using a counterfeit license plate, there are cases of successful entry into major government agencies. This paper proposes an improved system over the existing artificial intelligence parking control system to prevent vehicles with such fake license plates from entering. The proposed method is to use the degree of matching of the front feature points of the vehicle as a passing criterion using the ORB algorithm that extracts information on feature points characterized by an image, just as the existing system uses the matching of vehicle license plates as a passing criterion. In addition, a procedure for checking whether a vehicle exists inside was included in the proposed system to prevent the entry of the same type of vehicle with a fake license plate. As a result of the experiment, it showed the improved performance in identifying vehicles with fake license plates compared to the existing system. These results confirmed that the methods proposed in this paper could be applied to the existing parking control system while taking the flow of the original artificial intelligence parking control system to prevent vehicles with fake license plates from entering.

In this paper, We propose a new technique extract efficiently a car number plate based on edge projection. In order to obtain the region of car number plate, we use a motive that the luminance differences between the number plate background and characters. And, we introduce a projection technique to obtain character parts based on edge image. In vertical direction. we propose a shape matching method. Specially the new number plate standard has more characters than the old one in horizontal direction and, it is efficiently used to extract the number plate. Therefore, the proposed technique is useful to the new number plate standard. In simulation results. We have illustrated that our algorithm can recognize different number plates with a success ration of 90%.

This paper proposes an efficient recognition method of car license plate from the car images by using both the dynamical thresholding and the neural network with enhanced learning algorithm. The car license plate is extracted by the dynamical thresholding based on the structural features and the density rates. Each characters and numbers from the p]ate is also extracted by the contour tracking algorithm. The enhanced neural network is proposed for recognizing them, which has the algorithm of combining the modified ART1 and the supervised learning method. The proposed method has applied to the real-world car images. The simulation results show that the proposed method has better the extraction rates than the methods with information of the gray brightness and the RGB, respectively. And the proposed method has better recognition performance than the conventional backpropagation neural network.

This paper describes the methods which segment more efficiently the car license plate and the character region by using 1-D DCT. In the car images, a license plate region and a character region of the license plate can be distingushed by the regular high frequency components from the car images. In this method, it is shown that the regular high frequency componets are extracted by using DCT and license plate region is segmented in the car image and the caracter region is then seperated at the extracted license plate by using the previously extracted regular high frequency components. Some experiment results of the various images are shown. It has been shown from the results that the car license plates and the character regions can be segmented more exactly and efficiently than conventional methods.
