YOLOv8-based license plate and digit detector for Zindi challenge # 🇹🇳 Tunisian License Plate Recognition (Zindi Challenge) 🚗 This project is part of the **Zindi Tunisian License Plate Recognition** challenge. The goal is to detect full license plates, then extract and recognize individual **digits** and the Arabic word **"تونس"** from each plate. 📌 **Current Status**: Work in Progress (WIP) ✅ License plate detection and digit+word detection models are trained 🧠 Next steps: OCR/classification and submission logic --- ## 🧪 What This Project Does ### ✅ Done: - 🔍 **Detect full license plates** using YOLOv8 - 🔠 **Detect individual digits and Arabic word ("تونس")** from cropped license plates - 🖼️ Visualize detections with bounding boxes ### 🔜 Coming soon: - 🧠 **Digit classifier or OCR** to convert cropped characters into actual digits/text - 📄 Generate `submission.csv` for final prediction format - 🧹 Clean UI + Inference script --- ## 🧰 File & Folder Overview tunisian-license-plate-ocr/ ├── data/ │ └── licence plat challange 1/ │ ├── license_plates_detection_train.csv │ ├── license_plates_detection_train.zip │ ├── license_plates_recognition_train.csv │ ├── license_plates_recognition_train.zip │ ├── SampleSubmission.csv │ ├── test.zip │ └── licence_plate.v1.yolov8.zip ├── models/ │ ├── digit_detectorYoloV8.pt │ └── licence_platdetectorYoloV8.pt ├── notebooks/ │ └── digit-detector.ipynb ├── outputs/ │ ├── confusion_matrix.png │ ├── example_car.jpg │ └── resulats.png ├── .gitignore ├── README.md └── requirements.txt ## 🔍 Sample Results ### 📌 Example Input ### 🧠 Digit + Word Detection – YOLOv8 ### 🔍 Final Detection Results (Plate + Digits)
