Second step: this car plate is People's Armed Police's car plate if judge, using affiliated area that A, B the order decimal fractions region as People's Armed Police's car plate, this Wu Ge region, right side, region is as character zone, (People's Armed Police's car plate is totally 9 characters for seven character zones altogether, the first two character " WJ " is changeless, does not need to cut apart and identify);
The 3rd step: this car plate is common car plate, cuts apart character by Gray Projection method if judge.The license plate image after described correction is made to medium filtering, and carry out horizontal direction projection,, to each row summation, obtain one-dimension array S, detect the reference position of this array non-zero region;
The 4th step: calculate the width w in the non-vanishing region of each section of projection, find out the width satisfying condition, i.e. 0.08w p< w < 0.125w p, w wherein pfor car plate width;
The 5th step: the region that above-mentioned character duration is satisfied condition is as character zone;
The 6th step: calculating character number of regions n, if n < 7 thinks and has character " 1 " to have (width of " 1 " character does not meet above-mentioned condition);
The 7th step: carry out postsearch screening to not meeting the region of above-mentioned condition, if its width w meets 0.01w p< w < 0.05w p(w wherein pfor car plate width), determine that it is " 1 ", otherwise cast out this region;
The 8th step: recalculate character zone number m, if m=6 think and lack Chinese character, using first region in first character left side as Chinese character region; If m=7, termination character is cut apart; If other, think that the impaired serious or image of car plate is pseudo-license plate image.
Described character recognition is that each character is carried out to feature extraction, resulting proper vector is classified by the good sorter of training in advance and using classification results as preliminary recognition result, characters on license plate by stained is carried out to secondary identification by imitating the template matching algorithm of human-eye visual characteristic, finally obtain license plate recognition result, specific implementation step is:
The first step: use the method for bilinear interpolation to carry out size conversion to split 7 groups of characters on license plate images, obtain the normalized image that 7 groups of pixel sizes are 32 * 16;
Second step: normalized image is carried out respectively to feature extraction: first described normalized image is divided into 4 * 4 piece, the gray-scale value summation in each piece, can obtain 8 * 4 array; Then described normalized image border is expanded with 0, it is done to rim detection with Canny operator, only retain maximal margin;
The 3rd step: the piece that is 4 * 4 to the above-mentioned image even partition that only retains maximal margin, to the gray-scale value summation in each piece, obtains the array of another group 8 * 4;
The 4th step: by above-mentioned two stretching merging of array, form the vector of one 64 dimension, as the proper vector of this character picture;
The 5th step: with sample training BP network, the BP neural network classifier that obtains training.Described BP neural network classifier trains in advance, and its training method is: first according to the samples pictures of actual photographed, obtain a large amount of pictures of each character, extract its feature as training sample; Then create BP neural network, determine that (the network number of plies is made as 2 layers to its each parameter, and transfer function is made as logsig, and training function is made as traingdx, and validity function is mse, and frequency of training is made as 10000, and target mse minimum value is made as 10 -5, target minimal gradient is made as 10 -17);
The 6th step: extract the proper vector of character to be identified, send into the BP neural network classifier training and carry out Classification and Identification, obtain preliminary recognition result;
The 7th step: when car plate has the situation such as stained, incomplete, may cause above-mentioned preliminary classification correctly to identify, now utilize the visual characteristic of human eye that the character picture going wrong is carried out to secondary identification by template matching method, thereby finally obtain correct recognition result;
The visual characteristic of described human eye refers to when target information is imperfect, and the mankind as the case may be lower global knowledge relevant to target infer, can infer according to local knowledge overall.This characteristic can be applied in and in template matching method, identify stained car plate.The steps include: first dirty character image to be extracted; Then be divided into upper left, lower-left, upper right, the equal-sized sub-block in four of bottom rights, the sub-block of character to be identified is mated with the corresponding blocks of template in template base; Finally using characters on license plate corresponding to the most approaching template of matching result as final recognition result.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows:
The motion detection algorithm used of vehicle is improved frame-to-frame differences method.Each frame in video is carried out to piecemeal, and take each piece carries out moving region and detects and to have reduced calculated amount and memory space as unit, and the interference that many threshold determinations mechanism causes noise and environment in addition has good inhibition; Finally only be extracted in the movement destination image in certain area coverage, in the vehicle image that can guarantee like this to obtain, car plate size is more stable, for follow-up car plate location provides good image source.Thereby the method only depends on video input and has avoided the cost and the high problem of maintenance cost that rely on hardware device to bring, thereby improved algorithm can improve the real-time that arithmetic speed meets system greatly in addition, well having solved current car plate identification product on the market mostly can only be for the problem of static state or quasistatic image.
Car plate location adopts the method for local edge screening and mathematical morphology.The method is only utilized the half-tone information of image, does not utilize chromatic information, can prevent because the car plate that camera color distortion causes is located inaccurate problem, and have higher location rate and stronger robustness.The first step is the pre-service to image, can weaken non-license plate area marginal information, outstanding license plate area marginal information; Second step carries out local edge screening to image, because license plate area edge gradient changes obvious, frequent and has certain rule, so only retain the vertical marginal information of image according to this feature, can maximizedly filter out car plate edge, gets rid of and disturbs; The 3rd step is used the opening and closing operation in mathematical morphology can be connected fast or cut off the white portion in bianry image with region-filling algorithm, like this, can obtain rapidly some license plate candidate areas by opening and closing operation; Thereby the 4th step is set up decision mechanism by priori and is filtered out rapidly and accurately license plate area.The method takes full advantage of edge gradient feature, geometric characteristic, gray scale textural characteristics of car plate etc. and carrys out positioning licence plate as priori, for the car plate identification of next stage is laid a good foundation, the method has made up existing algorithm of locating license plate of vehicle and for the image of background complexity, has easily formed the problem of flase drop in addition, and locating speed comparatively fast can meet system real time, less to condition restriction such as the color of car plate, shooting angle, illumination, result shows that different shooting environmental is all had to good locating effect.
License plate image pre-service mainly comprises binaryzation and slant correction, and algorithm used herein is all applicable to China's Mainland standard car plate, and binaryzation is respond well, and slant correction is accurate, and has stronger robustness.The first step to the four steps, detected car plate background color, if directly license plate image is carried out to gray processing and binaryzation, may there are two kinds of binary images of black matrix wrongly written or mispronounced character and white gravoply, with black engraved characters, cannot carry out subsequent treatment, after background color detects and guaranteed binaryzation, license plate image is black matrix wrongly written or mispronounced character, has proofreaied and correct the red glyphs color that white background and black matrix car plate may occur simultaneously, and after assurance binaryzation, red glyphs information can not lost; The 5th step and the 6th step, first cap conversion in top can be eliminated the impact of uneven illumination on car plate, prevent car plate Characters Stuck and unsharp effect after binaryzation, the binaryzation method of use based on histogram analysis can be extracted license plate image binary-state threshold better, compare Otsu method, the method can obtain characters on license plate more clearly; The 7th step and the 8th step are image to be done to horizontal tilt proofread and correct, algorithm used is the slant correction method based on character edge information and Hough conversion, this algorithm is the improvement of the slant correction algorithm based on Hough conversion to tradition, it is no longer the straight line that detects license plate image upper and lower side frame, but detect place, the upper and lower edge of character straight line, effectively prevented that car plate positioning image from not containing the situation of frame, and algorithm stability is good, detection angles is accurate, and horizontal tilt calibration result is good; The 9th step has been excised the upper and lower side frame of the rear image of horizontal tilt correction, for next step provides good basis; The tenth step effect is vertical skew correction, and algorithm used is angle corresponding to horizontal projection maximum variance after detection shear transformation, and this algorithm accuracy of detection is high, good stability.
Character segmentation step has taken into full account China's Mainland car plate standard, be divided into common car plate and People's Armed Police's car plate, common License Plate Character Segmentation is used to the characters on license plate cutting algorithm based on projection, People's Armed Police's License Plate Character Segmentation is used to the characters on license plate cutting algorithm based on connected domain, thereby prevented that single algorithm is for the inapplicable situation that can not carry out car plate identification of heteroid car plate.To two class car plates, use corresponding algorithm all can accurately cut out the character in car plate, there is good stability.
Character recognition algorithm used is by BP neural network and template matches combines and utilize the visual characteristic of human eye to overcome the defect that existing licence plate recognition method None-identified car plate has stained situation.Compare single stencil matching or neural network algorithm, this algorithm identified rate is high, and robustness is good.The first step is transformed to unified size by character picture; Second step extracts feature to character picture, and this feature had both comprised image overall information, comprises again marginal information, can distinguish preferably other characters; The 3rd step is carried out BP neural network classification, and BP neural network can be carried out Nonlinear Classification, with it, character feature is classified, and can obtain higher accuracy; The 4th step is for part, to have the undesirable characters of classification such as stained or uneven illumination, uses stencil matching to carry out secondary identification recognizable set is increased greatly, thereby improved the applicability of system.
