Abstract: This paper addresses the challenge of accurately detecting and recognizing Arabic license plates, particularly those subjected to severe tilt angles. It presents a robust license plate detection and recognition framework that consists three main steps: plate detection and segmentation, plate perspective correction, and vehicle number recognition. In the first step, a mask R-CNN model is used to detect the plate location, providing pixel-wise labels of identified plates’ areas. Following this, a perspective correction technique is used to obtain a clear and rectangular image of each license plate in the image. Lastly, the framework employs a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) model for accurate vehicle number recognition. The framework’s efficacy is demonstrated through its application to build a plate recognition system tailored for Egyptian license plates. The system was tested on a dataset collected from campus gate cameras at Zewail city of science and technology, achieving a character accuracy of 97%.
