To enhance the accuracy of license plate recognition the module provides a few features based on neural network technologies. Due to the necessity to install additional libraries to support these features, and their use increases the load on the server, the module has two types of distribution packages:
eocortex-plate: complete installation package containing all the additional libraries needed for neural network features.
eocortex-plate-non-dnn: installation package without support for neural network features.
Regardless of the selected package, the module installs in the standard way from the repository.
Debian and Ubuntu
