the model does not detect the LP if the picture was only the LP about alpr-unconstrained

[LeeWlving]

hello everyone i tried to use photos of the LP only without the vehicle and the model doesn't extract the text of the LP , so i notes that if it was a photo of a vehicle with the LP it will be detected otherwise it's not

Yeah! In the paper, the model will first detect the vehicle ,than detect the LP, so maybe if there is no vehicle in you photo , this model won't work well.

Actually , it does not need a vehicle just use the detect ocr script but the trained model that they shared is not the best , if you train your own it will detect the license plate or the ocr , if you have any questions feel free to ask , i will try to help you

thank you very much , i'm actually working on the LP of Saudi Arabia and i trained my model for about 70K iteration on google colab because my computer is old so i used there GPU but after 70K iteration i got over usage of GPU in google colab . however when i run the model i only got 1 LP of saudi arabia is correct the rest of them either i got some of the letters or i got some of the numbers and this is my output , the only correct Saudi LP is the 4.1.jpg

Hi there,
I could detect the plate using different model, however, I used the your ocr and found good results, still, there is a problem, the detected plate need a deblure so the chars and numbers become more clearer and accurate

I really hope that you could help me in finding a great deblure model that could also work in a realtime manner

Hmm, this can mean that

Hmm i havent used google colab , but i you are detecting only couple of letters maybe that means that the training did not go well , try again with a lower batch size and iterations in the config file , and one more thing , are you training YOLOv3 model or YOLOv2? because the ocr script cant work with YOLOv3 it gives false results and incomplete , if you are using YOLOv3 i have scipt that can help you .
PS how many images are you training on ?

i used google colab because it better and easy to use with GPU . i used YOLOv2 , i triad with YOLOv3 but i got nothing . the Saudi LP is two layer the first in Arabic and the second in English but i only need the one in English you may google it so you can understand it better .and for the training i used 98 images with annotation Xml file , and for the annotation i used website called Nanonets.com to label and to download the annotation

[Fahad-Alsabr]

maybe if i can used the available model by the developer to detect the whole second layer only i may have a better results .but the problem with Saudi LP is that it has many shapes the long rectangle LP and the short rectangle and some of the long rectangle LP has a word " KSA " written in the middle of the LP

Have you trained your own?
