Abstract: The location of license plate plays a crucial role in license plate recognition system. Based on some flaws of traditional methods used for license plate location and shortcomings of premature convergence of genetic algorithms, a new License Plate Location based on Immune Clonal Selection（LPLICS） is proposed in this paper. This method synthesizes the character of license plate location and that of global search, diversity, and no prone to premature in immune clonal selection. Experimental results show that LPLICS can automatically search for license plate and has less impact of changes by image quality, with good noise immunity.

Key words: immune, clonal selection, license plate location
