Automatic text recognition from the natural images acquired in uncontrolled lighting
conditions is a challenging task due to the presence of shadows hindering the shape …

License Plate Character Recognition (LPCR) is a technology for reading vehicle registration
plates using optical character recognition from images and videos, and it has a long history …

The paper presents a smart camera aimed at security and law enforcement applications for
intelligent transportation systems. An extended background is presented first as a scholar …

This paper presents a review study on binarization of gray images. Binarization is a
technique by which an image is converted into bits. It is an important step in most document …

A high performance license plate recognition system (LPRS) is proposed in this work. The
proposed LPRS is composed of the following three main stages:(i) plate region …

Image binarization is one of the key operations decreasing the amount of information used
in further analysis of image data, significantly influencing the final results. Although in some …

We present a novel method for real‐time automatic license plate detection in high‐resolution
videos. Although there have been extensive studies of license plate detection since the …

Automatic container code recognition from a captured image is used for tracking and
monitoring containers, but often fails when the code is not captured clearly. In this paper, we …

Image processing techniques have been used in a wide variety of applications nowadays to
enhance the quality of raw image data. Today, image segmentation or detection of x-tray …

Adaptive binarization of unevenly lightened images is one of the key issues in document
image analysis and further text recognition. As the global thresholding leads to improper …
