The vehicle license plate recognition (VLPR) system analyzes and monitors the speed of vehicles, theft of vehicles, the violation of traffic rules, illegal parking, etc., on the motorway. The VLPR consists of three major parts: license plate detection (LPD), license plate character segmentation (LPCS), and license plate character recognition (LPCR). This paper presents an efficient method for the LPCS and LPCR of Korean vehicle license plates (LPs). LP tilt adjustment is a very important…

Continuous risk profile and clustering-based method for investigating the effect of the automated enforcement system on urban traffic collisions

It was observed that the severity of collisions was alleviated in most clusters after AES installation, and this may be viewed as a positive effect caused by the decrease in vehicle speed due to speeding enforcement.
