Morphology Based Approach To Recognize Number Plates in India

Morphology based Approach to Recognize License Plates in India studies the problems that are being faced to recognize Vehicle License Plates (VLP) in Indian conditions. This works provides in depth knowledge about the causes of failure of other VLP recognition methods in Indian conditions. This work is based on mathematical operations called Morphological operations such as Dilation, Erosion etc.. Morphology is a technique in which the shape of the image is to be taken care of. Everything revolves around the shape of the image on which operations are to be performed. Some previous studies for character recognition were also referred and a working MATLAB ( MATLAB by Mathworks ) Program has been created that extracts License plate regions only and displays the actual Characters (Vehicle Registration Number or License plate characters)
