Improved YOLOv8n Model for Detecting Helmets and License Plates on Electric Bicycles

Wearing helmetswhile riding electric bicycles can significantly reduce head injuries resulting fromtraffic accidents.To effectively monitor compliance,the utilization of target detection algorithms through traffic cameras plays a vital role in identifying helmet usage by electric bicycle riders and recognizing license plates on electric bicycles.However,manual enforcement by traffic police is time-consuming and labor-intensive.Traditional methods face challenges in accurately identifying small targets such as helmets and license plates using deep learning techniques.This paper proposes an enhanced model for detecting helmets and license plates on electric bicycles,addressing these challenges.The proposedmodel improves uponYOLOv8n by deepening the network structure,incorporating weighted connections,and introducing lightweight convolutional modules.These modifications aim to enhance the precision of small target recognition while reducing the model’s parameters,making it suitable for deployment on low-performance devices in real traffic scenarios.Experimental results demonstrate that the model achieves an mAP@0.5 of 91.8%,showing an 11.5%improvement over the baselinemodel,with a 16.2%reduction in parameters.Additionally,themodel achieves a frames per second(FPS)rate of 58,meeting the accuracy and speed requirements for detection in actual traffic scenarios.

The development of scientific inquiry and research has yielded numerous benefits in the realm of intelligent traffic control systems, particularly in the realm of automatic license plate recognition for vehicles. The design of license plate recognition algorithms has undergone digitalization through the utilization of neural networks. In contemporary times, there is a growing demand for vehicle surveillance due to the need for efficient vehicle processing and traffic management.

The study aims to present contemporary methodologies and empirical findings pertaining to automated license plate recognition. The primary focus of the automatic license plate recognition algorithm was on image extraction, character segmentation, and recognition. The task of character segmentation has been identified as the most challenging function based on my observations. The license plate recognition project that we designed demonstrated the effectiveness of this method across various observed conditions. Particularly in low-light environments, such as during periods of limited illumination or inclement weather characterized by precipitation. The method has been subjected to testing using a sample size of fifty images, resulting in a 100% accuracy rate. The findings of this study demonstrate the project’s ability to effectively determine the optimal outcomes of simulations.

Super-resolution reconstruction for license plate images of moving vehicles

A novel reconstruction method to improve the recognition of license plate texts of moving vehicles in real traffic videos is proposed, which fuses complimentary information among low resolution （LR） images to yield a high resolution （HR） image. Based on the regularization super-resolution （SR） reconstruction schemes, this paper first introduces a residual gradient （RG） term as a new regularization term to improve the quality of the reconstructed image. Moreover, L1 norm is used to measure the residual data （RD） term and the RG term in order to improve the robustness of the proposed method. Finally, the steepest descent method is exploited to solve the energy functional. Simulated and real acquired video sequence experiments show the effectiveness and practicability of the proposed method and demonstrate its superiority over the bi-cubic interpolation and discontinuity adaptive Markov random field （DAMRF） SR method in both signal to noise ratios （SNR） and visual effects.

著作权法中compulsory license的中译名辨析

国内学界在研究著作权法外文文献时,往往将compulsory license翻译为强制许可而非法定许可。然而,对国外学术论文、司法判例和立法实践的考察发现,上述翻译实为不妥,即在著作权法中compulsory license和statutory license通常都被用来表达法定许可这一概念。由于语境不同,compulsory license在著作权法和专利法中应作不同翻译。

Vehicle detection based on information fusion of vehicle symmetrical contour and license plate position

An efficient vehicle detection approach is proposed for traffic surveillance images, which is based on information fusion of vehicle symmetrical contour and license plate position. The vertical symmetry axis of the vehicle contour in an image is. first detected, and then the vertical and the horizontal symmetry axes of the license plate are detected using the symmetry axis of the vehicle contour as a reference. The vehicle location in an image is determined using license plate symmetry axes and the vertical and the horizontal projection maps of the vehicle edge image. A dataset consisting of 450 images （15 classes of vehicles） is used to test the proposed method. The experimental results indicate that compared with the vehicle contour-based, the license plate location-based, the vehicle texture-based and the Gabor feature-based methods, the proposed method is the best with a detection accuracy of 90.7% and an elapsed time of 125 ms.

Vehicle License Plate Character Segmentation

Vehicle license plate (VLP) character segmentation is an important part of the vehicle license plate recognition system (VLPRS).This paper proposes a least square method (LSM) to treat horizontal tilt and vertical tilt in VLP images.Auxiliary lines are added into the image (or the tilt-corrected image) to make the separated parts of each Chinese character to be an interconnected region.The noise regions will be eliminated after two fusing images are merged according to the minimum principle of gray values. Then,the characters are segmented by projection method (PM) and the final character images are obtained.The experimental results show that this method features fast processing and good performance in segmentation.
