提出了一种基于坐标投影点方差最小化的垂直倾斜校正方法，用于车牌识别系统的字符分割和识别。在水平校正和边界划定后进行粗略字符分割。通过切变变换后沿垂直方向投影字符点，根据投影点坐标方差的最小化推导出两个闭合形式的切变角度表达式，直接确定垂直倾斜角，进而实现车牌图像的校正。实验结果显示，该方法与基于旋转投影和线拟合的垂直倾斜校正方法相比，具有高精度、低计算量和鲁棒性。已应用于实际工程系统。
Abstract:
In order to facilitate character segmentation and recognition in a license plate recognition system, the tilting license plates in the located images should be corrected in both the horizontal and vertical directions. A vertical
tilt correction method by minimizing variance of coordinates of the projection points is proposed. Coarse character segmentation is performed after horizontal correction and upper and lower border delineation. The character points are projected along the vertical direction after shear transform. Two closed-form expressions of the shear angle are derived based on minimizing variance of coordinates of the projection points. Thus the vertical tilt angle is directly determined and the license plate images corrected using the vertical tilt angle. Experimental results show that, compared to the vertical tilt correction methods of the license plate based on rotation projection and line fitting, the proposed method has high accuracy, requires less computation, and is robust. The proposed method has been applied in practical engineering system.
