Indian Commercial Truck License Plate Detection and Recognition for Weighbridge AutomationSiddharth Agrawal, Keyur D. Joshi
Detection and recognition of a licence plate is important when automating weighbridge services. While many large databases are available for Latin and Chinese alphanumeric license plates, data for Indian License Plates is inadequate. In particular, databases of Indian commercial truck license plates are inadequate, despite the fact that commercial vehicle license plate recognition plays a profound role in terms of logistics management and weighbridge automation. Moreover, models to recognise license plates are not effectively able to generalise to such data due to its challenging nature, and due to the abundant frequency of handwritten license plates, leading to the usage of diverse font styles. Thus, a database and effective models to recognise and detect such license plates are crucial. This paper provides a database on commercial truck license plates, and using state-of-the-art models in real-time object Detection: You Only Look Once Version 7, and SceneText Recognition: Permuted Autoregressive Sequence Models, our method outperforms the other cited references where the maximum accuracy obtained was less than 90%, while we have achieved 95.82% accuracy in our algorithm implementation on the presented challenging license plate dataset. Index Terms- Automatic License Plate Recognition, character recognition, license plate detection, vision transformer.

Machine Vision Using Cellphone Camera: A Comparison of deep networks for classifying three challenging denominations of Indian CoinsKeyur D. Joshi, Dhruv Shah, Varshil Shah et al.
Indian currency coins come in a variety of denominations. Off all the varieties Rs.1, RS.2, and Rs.5 have similar diameters. Majority of the coin styles in market circulation for denominations of Rs.1 and Rs.2 coins are nearly the same except for numerals on its reverse side. If a coin is resting on its obverse side, the correct denomination is not distinguishable by humans. Therefore, it was hypothesized that a digital image of a coin resting on its either size could be classified into its correct denomination by training a deep neural network model. The digital images were generated by using cheap cell phone cameras. To find the most suitable deep neural network architecture, four were selected based on the preliminary analysis carried out for comparison. The results confirm that two of the four deep neural network models can classify the correct denomination from either side of a coin with an accuracy of 97%.

Estimating related words computationally using language model from the Mahabharata -- an Indian epicVrunda Gadesha, Keyur D Joshi, Shefali Naik
'Mahabharata' is the most popular among many Indian pieces of literature referred to in many domains for completely different purposes. This text itself is having various dimension and aspects which is useful for the human being in their personal life and professional life. This Indian Epic is originally written in the Sanskrit Language. Now in the era of Natural Language Processing, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Human-Computer interaction this text can be processed according to the domain requirement. It is interesting to process this text and get useful insights from Mahabharata. The limitation of the humans while analyzing Mahabharata is that they always have a sentiment aspect towards the story narrated by the author. Apart from that, the human cannot memorize statistical or computational details, like which two words are frequently coming in one sentence? What is the average length of the sentences across the whole literature? Which word is the most popular word across the text, what are the lemmas of the words used across the sentences? Thus, in this paper, we propose an NLP pipeline to get some statistical and computational insights along with the most relevant word searching method from the largest epic 'Mahabharata'. We stacked the different text-processing approaches to articulate the best results which can be further used in the various domain where Mahabharata needs to be referred.
