Hi, After traning the Licence_plate_recognition model, runing python3 main.py -mode predict -i test.jpg -model mlp.pkl ended with the error :

Any thoughts ? thank you in advance. /Y

I guess that is a problem related to img format,are you using the test.jpg image ?

younes200 commented 5 years ago

My bad, wrong img format :) Thanks Achraf for sharing you code !

Hello, guys can you please provide insight on how you fixed this error

hiyamgh commented 4 years ago

Invalid number of channels in input image: 'VScn::contains(scn)' where 'scn' is 1

pls help me..

kevinkit commented 4 years ago

scn is 1 means that there is only one channel present, ergo a gray scale image, however it requires a RGB image with 3 channels. To fix this convert your images form grayscale to RGB first (stack the grayscale images as 3D Matrix or use cvtColor with COLOR_GRAY2RGB

shivam-parashar commented 4 years ago

I think the problem is simple. You're converting an already gray_image to a gray_image. So just make a check if no_of_channels==3: then cvtColor(...)
