METHOD AND DEVICE FOR IDENTIFYING NUMBER OF BILLS AND MULTIPLE BILL AREAS IN IMAGE

摘要

The invention provides a method and a device for identifying the number of bills and multiple bill areas in an image. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring the image containing a plurality of bills arranged in sequence; processing the image to obtain a plurality of boundary lines of each bill in the image; wherein the boundary lines comprise a first type of boundary lines which are substantially perpendicular to the bill arrangement direction; generating a long line segment which is substantially parallel to the arrangement direction of the bills and passes through the area where all the bills are located, wherein the long line segment has an intersection point with each first type of boundary line; and determining the number of bills in the image according to the lengths of the sub-line segments between the adjacent intersection points.
