Abstract

In this paper, a new method for license plate detection based on AdaBoost is proposed. In the proposed method, auto-correlation feature, which is ignored by previous learning-based method, is introduced to feature pool. Since that there are two types of Chinese license plate, one type is deeper-background-lighter-character and the other is lighter-background-deeper-character, training a detector cannot convergent. To avoid this problem, two detectors are designed in the proposed method. Experimental results show the superiority of proposed method.
