A Novel Approach for Car License Plate Detection Based on Vertical Edges

Abstract

License plate can be used for identifying vehicle since it is unique for each vehicle. In this paper proposes a fast technique for identifying the vehicle licenseplate. Here first the input image is binarized by adaptive thresholding and then image is enhanced by unwanted-line elimination algorithm (ULEA). Then on applying VEDA vertical edges of the image is detected. Then number of possible candidate license plate region is extracted out of which original LP is detected.
