DeepStack LPR Custom Model

[MikeLud1]

@MikeLud1 the model works pretty well, but I think we can make it even better with community contributed annotated training material. If you think this is something you are interested in doing, I am willing to do some training set annotation on my captures.

I need images with the current models I can do AI assisted annotation

Just from observing the BI feed, most missed license plates are on white cars. So white car and slim plate bezel gives issues.
On unrelated note BI just acts randomly by not sending images to platerecognizer .
Deepstack tells that it is a car and there is a plate in the picture, yet some times BI doesn't mark it wit vehicle icon, and not sending picture for analysis.
And other times it works, driving me nuts.

Are there any how to instructions to install LPR Custom Models? I can not get night time to grab any plates for ALPR. BI picks it up and records but nothing goes to ALPR.

Post screenshots of you camera trigger & AI setting

Also did you try some of the settings in the below post

DeepStack LPR Custom Model

What allows for these improvements? The new model I trained using a different base model, the old was trained using yolov5m the new model I used yolov5s.

What folder do you have DeepStack installed in, you should not have to create a DeepStack folder because the default install folder is C:\DeepStack. Also it looks like DeepStack is not running.

I installed it in c drive. Where should it be. I could not find one.

The folder should look like the below screenshot, if not uninstall DeepStack and reinstall with the default settings.

 

[ponyrider127]

I did not have a Deep Stack folder in C drive.

Could it be that I do not have Deep Stack because I'm on the demo version?

Could be, I am not sure if DeepStack works with the demo version.

DeepStack works with the demo version.

 

[ponyrider127]

I can not figure out why I do not have the folder. Do I need to delete BI and start all over.

 

[wittaj]

That folder is created where you tell the deepstack .exe file where to create the folder and install the files, so it is probably in your downloads folder.

 

[ponyrider127]

Is deepstack a file that comes with BI or do I have to download it and install?

 

[ponyrider127]

I just searched the local drive for deep stack and found nothing.

Yo have to download it see link below, download the CPU version for Windows and run the file you downloaded.

[ponyrider127]

I just downloaded it. That explains a lot.

OK, now I have DeepStack. Installed and checked alert files and I see pics and .dat files. I think I am getting closer.
