AUTOMATIC LICENSE PLATE RECOGNITION (ALPR) AND VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION PROFILE METHODS AND SYSTEMS

摘要

Embodiments herein provide various systems and methods for automated classification of vehicle reads to build vehicle identification profile and for automated vehicle identification using content extracted from an image frame of a vehicle to identify a most probable vehicle identification profile. An example method comprises capturing, by a camera, a read comprising an image frame including a portion of a vehicle; identifying at least one of a license plate number and a descriptor of the vehicle using image processing on the read; determining a probability value that the read includes the vehicle based on the identified at least one of the license plate number and the descriptor; when the probability value exceeds a threshold value, identifying a vehicle identification profile in a database using the identified at least one of the license plate number and the descriptor; and updating the vehicle identification profile to include the captured read.
