In this study, we presented a method to recognize vehicle license plates using CNN techniques. A vehicle plate is normally used for the official identification purposes by the authorities. Most regular Optical Character Recognition (OCR) techniques perform well in recognizing printed characters on documents but cannot make out the registration number on the number plates. Besides, the existing approaches to plate number detection require that the vehicle is stationary and not in motion. To address these challenges to number plate detection we make the following contributions. We create a database of captured vehicle number plate's images and recognize the number plate character using Convolutional Neural Networks. The results of this study can be usefully used in parking management systems and enforcement cameras.

Antibiotics is one of the emerging pollutants found in various water sources as well as wastewater due to its excessive use. Different techniques are available for treating antibiotics contaminants in water such as advanced oxidation process and biological treatment etc. These two processes are ineffective, and the generation of side products makes this process more complicated. Membrane technology is another alternative for the removal of contaminants. To improve the removal of antibiotics and their resistant gene, membrane bioreactors are modified with NaClO and carbon materials. The generation of abundant reactive species is active against the antibiotic's resistant genes.

Recently, there has been a growing demand for school libraries to take on the role of curriculum convergence and content development. This study purposed to develop a program that integrates reading activities and artificial intelligence (AI) education in a middle school library as a platform for convergence education. The program aimed to enhance creative problem-solving skills by integrating an understanding of AI concepts and principles through reading activities related to AI topics. The program, comprising 18 sessions (6 modules), was implemented with 36 first-year students at A Middle School, Gyeonggi-do, in 2022. After implementation, a paired-sample t-test revealed significant improvements in AI learning self-efficacy and creative problem-solving skills. Participants also showed positive attitudes toward class engagement and reading activities. Implications for AI convergence education in connection with school libraries were discussed.
