Five ways you might already encounter AI in cities (and not realise it)
You'd probably notice if the car that cut you off or pulled up beside you at a light didn't have a driver. In the UK, self-driving cars are still required by law to have a safety driver at the wheel, so it is difficult to notice them. But car companies have been testing automated vehicles on UK roads at least since 2017. Self-driving cars use Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to steer themselves and navigate around obstacles. This technology is being introduced in many different ways, for example in cameras that detect whether people are speeding or using mobile phones while driving.

Enhancing Vehicle Entrance and Parking Management: Deep Learning Solutions for Efficiency and Security
Ramzan, Muhammad Umer, Ali, Usman, Naqvi, Syed Haider Abbas, Aslam, Zeeshan, Tehseen, null, Ali, Husnain, Faheem, Muhammad
The auto-management of vehicle entrance and parking in any organization is a complex challenge encompassing record-keeping, efficiency, and security concerns. Manual methods for tracking vehicles and finding parking spaces are slow and a waste of time. To solve the problem of auto management of vehicle entrance and parking, we have utilized state-of-the-art deep learning models and automated the process of vehicle entrance and parking into any organization. To ensure security, our system integrated vehicle detection, license number plate verification, and face detection and recognition models to ensure that the person and vehicle are registered with the organization. We have trained multiple deep-learning models for vehicle detection, license number plate detection, face detection, and recognition, however, the YOLOv8n model outperformed all the other models. Furthermore, License plate recognition is facilitated by Google's Tesseract-OCR Engine. By integrating these technologies, the system offers efficient vehicle detection, precise identification, streamlined record keeping, and optimized parking slot allocation in buildings, thereby enhancing convenience, accuracy, and security. Future research opportunities lie in fine-tuning system performance for a wide range of real-world applications.

Building Custom Deep Learning Based OCR models
OCR provides us with different ways to see an image, find and recognize the text in it. When we think about OCR, we inevitably think of lots of paperwork - bank cheques and legal documents, ID cards and street signs. In this blog post, we will try to predict the text present in number plate images. What we are dealing with is an optical character recognition library that leverages deep learning and attention mechanism to make predictions about what a particular character or word in an image is, if there is one at all. Lots of big words thrown there, so we'll take it step by step and explore the state of OCR technology and different approaches used for these tasks.
Matthew Ledvina – Artificial Intelligence: An Inevitable Future
Artificial Intelligence has been active as a concept for decades now. But the implementation of AI-enabled/infuses systems is at an all-time high in the past few years. Every industrial operation has integrated itself with AI to make things much smoother than they already were. The advent of Artificial Intelligence has made things super easy, especially for consumers. A few noticeable examples are the increased accessibility of purchasing commodities over the internet. The Artificial Intelligence enabled network studies each and every fragment of data to create a perception about the user.
How can you hide the number plates on the cars with Machine Learning
The reasons why our users want to hide their number plates could be different. We also are motivated to secure the data on our site. It seems natural to create privacy features for our users. One of our privacy features: we've created an anonymous phone number for sellers, e.x., when you sell your car, we create a temporary phone number for you. The callers don't know your real number when you use a temporary phone number which acts as a proxy for incoming calls.
2,550 motorists fined in five months Nashik News - Times of India
NASHIK: The city traffic branch has collected fine of Rs 5.10 lakh from 2,550 motorists in the past five months for violating the no-entry zone at the Indiranagar underpass on the Mumbai Agra highway. The traffic department had made mandatory for only Govind Nagar bound motorists to use the underpass while the Indiranagar bound motorists were told to take a detour to reach the place. But still many motorists didn't pay heed to the rules and were caught violating by the CCTV cameras put up inside the underpass. On January 26 this year, the city police installed an artificial intelligence (AI) system at the Indiranagar underpass to keep check on motorists violating the underpass norms. Senior police officials said that the new application installed at the underpass was not only helping streamline the vehicular traffic inside the structure but also helping in spotting the defaulters so that they can be fined.
The 25 Ways AI Can Revolutionize Transportation: From Driverless Trains to Smart Tracks
With massive breakthroughs in smart technologies being reported every month, it won't be long until our transport industries are dominated by AI. Here are just some of the ways artificial intelligence is changing the face of transport, and what we can expect in the near future. Autonomous cars have quickly moved from the realm of sci-fi into reality. Though still in the early stages, these AI-driven vehicles could drastically change how we get from A to B in the near future. From plowing snow to collecting garbage, self-driving trucks could soon be taking over a lot of our dirty work. The technology behind these trucks could also be utilized in freight, capable of transporting 2,000,000 pallets a year each.

China creates speed cameras that ID cars' scratches
The next generation of spy cameras are set to catch speeding drivers and hit them with fines - without even needing to check their number plates first. These roadside cameras could catch unruly drivers just by looking at scratches on their car or irregularities in the paintwork. The'repression network' uses artificial intelligence to differentiate between cars by spotting tiny differences between them. Researchers say their software is so sophisticated it could someday also be used for'face and persona retrieval'. This graphic shows how the system can identify cars based on their features, rather than a number plate.
Artificial Intelligence: The key to Improving Customer Experience
Artificial intelligence, or AI, is big news for 2017. Gartner not only revealed that enquiries on the subject tripled between 2015 and 2016, but also listed it as the most strategic technology trend for 2017. It's set to be a big disrupter for business in both B2B and B2C sectors. But in order to truly understand how AI could impact a business, it's important to understand what the term'AI' means and what it is capable of. The most significant differentiation to make is between artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Number plate recognition with Tensorflow - Matt's ramblings
To actually detect and recognize number plates in an input image a network much like the above is applied to 128x64 windows at various positions and scales, as described in the windowing section. The network differs from the one used in training in that the last two layers are convolutional rather than fully connected, and the input image can be any size rather than 128x64. The idea is that the whole image at a particular scale can be fed into this network which yields an image with a presence / character probability values at each "pixel". The idea here is that adjacent windows will share many convolutional features, so rolling them into the same network avoids calculating the same features multiple times.
