Abstract

Segmentation plays a significant role in computer vision and its related applications of image processing. Segmentation is actually a process of partitioning a digital image into multiple segments (sets of pixels) to simplify and/or change the representation of an image into more meaningful and easier to analyze. This paper presents a method of license plate extraction using segmentation method and mean value of the images. We extracted the numbers and characters from the license plate by calculating the common mean value of each character. The method proved as simple, fast and accurate for license plate extraction.
