The method comprises the following steps that a common camera is used for obtaining an actual traffic road scene image, and due to the influence of external complex environments such as weather, road conditions and the like, the detection and identification of a license plate by the camera are seriously interfered; moreover, most license plate recognition algorithms can only detect and recognize a single license plate in an image, and cannot accurately position and recognize multiple license plates in the image. At present, the license plate recognition technology has become the research focus of computer graphics, and is widely applied to real life, such as a residential parking timing system, a traffic intersection safety monitoring system and the like.
The license plate detection and the license plate character recognition are two key technologies of the license plate recognition.

The method adopts the existing single-target algorithm to carry out simple expansion to realize the detection and identification of a plurality of license plates, firstly, the detection effect of the method cannot meet the requirement, because a single license plate is clearer, the area of the single license plate in an image is bigger, and a plurality of license plates are distributed in each area of the image, each area is not very big, and the license plates are not particularly clear per se; secondly, the algorithm is simply added to the multi-license plate detection, so that the algorithm complexity is high, and the real-time effect is poor. Therefore, aiming at the existence of illegal events such as vehicle overspeed, illegal overtaking, red light running and the like on the current traffic road, a method capable of realizing multi-license plate recognition is urgently needed to prevent the occurrence of the traffic illegal activities.
