Abstract
The present invention discloses methods, systems and computer programmable products for detecting license plates and recognizing characters in the license plates. The system receives an image and identifies one or more regions including a license plate. The one or more regions are converted into a plurality of binarized images, which are then filtered to remove noise. Next, one or more clusters of characters are identified in the plurality of binarized images. The one or more clusters of characters are analyzed to recognize a set of characters, wherein each character in the set includes a confidence value.
