    License Plate recognition plays an important role on the traffic monitoring and parking management systems. In this paper, a fast and real time method has been proposed which has an appropriate application to find tilt and poor quality plates. In the proposed method, at the beginning, the image is converted into binary mode using adaptive threshold. Then, by using some edge detection and morphology operations, plate number location has been specified. Finally, if the plat has tilt, its tilt is removed away. This method has been tested on another paper data set that has different images of the background, considering distance, and angel of view so that the correct extraction rate of plate reached at 98.66%.Comment: 3rd IEEE International Conference on Computer and Knowledge Engineering (ICCKE 2013), October 31 & November 1, 2013, Ferdowsi Universit Mashha

    Averaging Transformations of Synaptic Potentials on Networks

    The problem of the transformation of microscopic information to the macroscopic level is an intriguing challenge in computational neuroscience, but also of general mathematical importance. Here, a phenomenological mathematical model is introduced that simulates the internal information processing of brain compartments. Synaptic potentials are integrated over small number of realistically coupled neurons to obtain macroscopic quantities. The striatal complex, an important part of the basal ganglia circuit in the brain for regulating motor activity, has been investigated as an example for the validation of the model

    The Predominance of Electric Transport in Synaptic Transmission

    The quantitative description of the motion of neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft appears to be one of the most difficult problems in the modeling of synapses. Here we show in contradiction to the common view, that this process is merely governed by electric transport than diffusion forces
