License plate recognition is an essential part of contemporary surveillance systems since it is helpful in many applications, including parking management, vehicle access control, traffic control, and law enforcement. This project aims to provide a robust and dependable method for detecting license plates that will outperform existing approaches in accuracy and dependability. This observation method uses contemporary technology to address challenging troubles related to license plate recognition. Our methodology is primarily based on the Faster R-CNN structure, an established model for picture item detection. The novel thing, even though, is how Gray Wolf Optimization—which draws notion from the searching conduct of gray wolves—is mixed with the Faster R-CNN network. The accuracy is greatly improved by this synergistic combination, which also improves detection abilities. Moreover, an improved ResNet-50 model is blanketed to improve the classification system similarly, ensuring accurate license plate detection in several situations. The extensively utilized ”car license plate detection” dataset is used to assess the recommended technology very well, confirming its efficacy in practical settings. The empirical outcomes show exceptional performance, with a median precision of 98.21%, demonstrating how nicely the hybrid method works to attain the very best stage of license plate detecting accuracy. This painting establishes a new benchmark in license plate identity using cutting-edge technology and innovative techniques, starting the door for enhanced safety and surveillance.
Real-time detection and recognition systems for vehicle license plates present a significant design and implementation challenge, arising from factors such as low image resolution, data noise, and various weather and lighting conditions.This study presents an efficient automated system for the identification and classification of vehicle license plates, utilizing deep learning techniques. The system is specifically designed for Iraqi vehicle license plates, adapting to various backgrounds, different font sizes, and non-standard formats. The proposed system has been designed to be integrated into an automated entrance gate security system. The system’s framework encompasses two primary phases: license plate detection (LPD) and character recognition (CR). The utilization of the advanced deep learning technique YOLOv4 has been implemented for both phases owing to its adeptness in real-time data processing and its remarkable precision in identifying diminutive entities like characters on license plates. In the LPD phase, the focal point is on the identification and isolation of license plates from images, whereas the CR phase is dedicated to the identification and extraction of characters from the identified license plates. A substantial dataset comprising Iraqi vehicle images captured under various lighting and weather circumstances has been amassed for the intention of both training and testing. The system attained a noteworthy accuracy level of 95.07%, coupled with an average processing time of 118.63 milliseconds for complete end-to-end operations on a specified dataset, thus highlighting its suitability for real-time applications. The results suggest that the proposed system has the capability to significantly enhance the efficiency and reliability of vehicle license plate recognition in various environmental conditions, thus making it suitable for implementation in security and traffic management contexts.
Nowadays, the trend has become to utilize Artificial Intelligence techniques to replace the human's mind in problem solving. Vehicle License Plate Recognition (VLPR) is one of these problems in which the computer outperforms the human being in terms of processing speed and accuracy of results. The emergence of deep learning techniques enhances and simplifies this task. This work emphasis on detecting the Iraqi License Plates based on SSD Deep Learning Algorithm. Then Segmenting the plate using horizontal and vertical shredding. Finally, the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm utilized to specify the type of car. The proposed system evaluated by using a group of 500 different Iraqi Vehicles. The successful results show that 98% regarding the plate detection, and 96% for segmenting operation.
