Application of Freeman Chain Codes: An Alternative Recognition Technique for Malaysian Car Plates
Various applications of car plate recognition systems have been developed using various kinds of methods and techniques by researchers all over the world. The applications developed were only suitable for specific country due to its standard specification endorsed by the transport department of particular countries. The Road Transport Department of Malaysia also has endorsed a specification for car plates that includes the font and size of characters that must be followed by car owners. However, there are cases where this specification is not followed. Several applications have been developed in Malaysia to overcome this problem. However, there is still problem in achieving 100 experiment using chain codes technique to perform recognition for different types of fonts used in Malaysian car plates.
