hi everyone...

im developing a numberplate recognition application using java and im
having problems with plate localization and segmantation..so if any of
u guys know of a good method to do this please reply..

When I google for "plate localization and segmantation" I get "Did you
mean: plate localization and segmentation" and when I click on that, I get

Thanks for the quick response..Yeah that's right. i want to find the
number plate from a given image. To draw a box around it and extract it
for segmentation and ocr.
I read many articles about it and it will be a great if any of u guys
can give me some steps, algorithms or coding to do this

Pardon the perhaps obvious question... but why do you think we'll do
better than established literature from people who know what they are
doing? If you find something particularly challenging or otherwise have
a specific question, please ask. Otherwise, no one here can likely do
better than duplicate the existing literature, and it would be a waste
of time to do so.

You asked for "a good method" for number plate recognition. The PDF
Oliver found for you explains two approaches. Someone already did the
major part of the work for you (problem analysis and evaluating
approaches), even with detailed information. You just have to implement it.

When I google for "openCV java", I get

Maybe you should start googling for the keywords of your question to
save yourself the turn-around time of waiting for someone on the newsgroup
doing it for you.
