基于灰度多值化的身份证号码识别

为了方便警察在公共场所核对居民的身份证信息，实现身份证号码的自动识别，提出了一种基于灰度多值化的身份证号码识别方法。该方法的思想是先找到身份证的四条边缘在图像中的位置，根据身份证号码所处区域在身份证中是固定的，可以定位到身份证号码所在区域；采用投影法分割出身份证号码单个字符；将单个字符灰度图像进行多值化处理，提取字符的网格特征，利用模板匹配法识别出字符。该方法不仅能快速地识别出号码，而且对于比较模糊或亮度不均匀的图像也能准确地识别。

In order to check the ID information of residents in public places in polices’ convenience, ID card number identification method based on gray scale multi-level is put forward to realize the automatic recognition of the ID card number.
