README

Summary of project:
This code is an implementation of a classifier for License Plate
Recognition, using Local Binary Patterns as features for a Support Vector
Machine.

A number of scripts are provided to execute tests with this code, and to
see how well the code performs, both when considering accuracy and speed.
There is also a script that automises the search for proper parameters for
the SVM.

In the docs folder, a report can be found with a more extensive description
of the theory, the implementation and the results.

The images folder contains a sorted dataset of characters, cut out from
real life images of license plates, provided by Parkingware Schiphol.
