A new vertical edge detection algorithm and its application

Edge detection is a very important process for many image processing applications, especially in Car License Plate Detection and Recognition Systems(CLPDRS). The need to distinguish the desired details is a very important pre-process in order to give good results in short time processing. We propose...
