Abstract

Online signature verification is one of the simple and efficient method of identity verification and has less resistance than other biometric technologies. In training to build a verification model, negative samples are required to build the model, but in most practical applications it is not easy to get negative samples - forgery signatures. In this paper, proposed is a method using someone else's signatures as negative samples. In verification, shape-based features extracted from the time-sequenced signature data are extracted and a support vector machine is used to verify. SVM tries to map a feature vector to a high dimensional space and to draw a linear boundary in the high dimensional space. SVM is one of the best classifiers and has been applied to various applications. Using general handwriting data, i.e., someone else's signatures which have little in common with positive samples improved the verification rate experimentally, which means that signature verification without negative samples is possible.

온라인 서명 검증은 간단하면서도 효율적인 본인 확인 방법의 하나로 다른 생체 인식 기술에 비해 거부감이 적은 장점이 있다. 서명 검증 모델을 학습하기 위해서는 모조서명이 필요하지만 대부분의 실용적인 응용에서는 모조서명을 확보하기가 쉽지 않다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 모조서명 확보 문제를 해결할 수 있는 방법의 하나로 다른 사람의 서명을 활용하는 방법을 제시한다. 검증 과정에서는 서명의 형태적 특징을 추출하고 이를 SVM을 이용하여 검증하였다. SVM은 특징 벡터를 고차원으로 사상하고 사상된 공간에서 선형 분리를 시도하는 방법으로 인식기 중 범용적이면서 높은 성능을 보이는 것으로 알려져 있다. 모델 생성 과정에서 모조서명으로 검증하고자 하는 사람의 서명과 형태적인 유사점을 찾을 수 없는 서명, 즉, 일반 필기 데이터를 사용함으로써, 모조서명의 확보가 어려운 경우에도 검증률을 개선할 수 있음을 실험 결과를 통해 확인할 수 있으며, 이는 모조서명 없이도 서명 검증이 가능함을 보여준다.
