ABSTRACT –
Car Number Plate Recognition (CNPR) systems have gained significant importance in various
applications, ranging from traffic management to law enforcement and parking management.
This project presents an automated approach to develop a robust and efficient Car Number
Plate Recognition system using state-of-the-art computer vision and machine learning
techniques.
The proposed system encompasses a series of steps that collectively enable accurate and real-
time number plate recognition from images and videos captured by surveillance cameras or
other devices. The core components of the system include image preprocessing, number plate
localization, character segmentation, and optical character recognition (OCR). In the initial
stage, the input images are preprocessed to enhance image quality and reduce noise, ensuring
improved results during subsequent steps. Next, the number plate is localized using advanced
object detection algorithms to accurately identify its position in the image. Subsequently,
individual characters are segmented from the localized number plate region, followed by the
application of OCR to recognize the alphanumeric characters on the plate.
To improve the system's performance, the proposed CNPR system utilizes deep learning
models, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), for efficient and accurate character
recognition. The system is trained on a large dataset of annotated number plate images to
ensure robustness and adaptability to diverse real-world scenarios.
The developed CNPR system is evaluated through extensive experiments and comparisons with
existing techniques, demonstrating its superior accuracy, speed, and robustness. The results
indicate that the system achieves remarkable recognition rates under varying environmental
conditions, lighting, and plate types.
The potential applications of this project are vast, including traffic monitoring, toll collection,
stolen vehicle detection, parking management, and law enforcement. The system's ability to
automate the identification process efficiently can significantly contribute to enhancing safety,
security, and efficiency in urban environments.
