In conventional approaches such as a functinal approach or a parametric approach to online signature verification, which could not deal with the local shape of signature, much various important informations inherent in the local part of signature shape have been overlooked. In this paper, we try a structural approach in which a signature is represented as a structural form of handwriting primitives and the local parts along a signature handwriting can be selectively compared according to their discrimination power in the process of signature verification, As a result, the error rate is diminished in the case that the weights of subpattern units is applied into comparing process, which is the degree of discrimination power of local part. And also, the global variation and complexity of each signature extracted from the analysis of local shape is found useful in determining the decision threshold more precisely.

This paper proposes a robust on-line signature verification system based on a new segmentation method and fusion scheme. The proposed segmentation method resolves the problem of segment-to-segment comparison where the variation between reference signature and input signature causes the errors in the location and the number of segments. In addition, the fusion scheme is adopted, which discriminates genuineness by calculating each feature vector's fuzzy membership degree yielded from the proposed segmentation method. Experimental results show that the proposed signature verification system has lower False Reject Rate(FRR) for genuine signature and False Accept Rate(FAR) for forgery signature.

For on-line signature verification, the local shape of a signature is an important information. The current approaches, in which signatures are represented into a function of time or a feature vector without regarding of local shape, have not used the various features of local shapes, for example, local variation of a signer, local complexity of signature or local difficulty of forger, and etc. In this paper, we propose a new technique for on-line signature verification based on a structural signature representation so as to analyze local shape and to make a selection of important local parts in matching process. That is. based on a structural representation of signature, a technique of important of local weighting and personalized decision threshold is newly introduced and its experimental results under different conditions are compared.

This paper is a research on the dynamic signature verification of error rate which are false rejection rate and false acceptance rate, the size of signature verification engine, the size of the characteristic vectors of a signature, the ability to distinguish similar signatures, and so on. We suggest feature extraction and comparison method of the signature verification. Also, we have implemented our system with Java technology for more efficient user interfaces and various OS Platforms.

In this paper, a new signature verification method is proposed. In the proposed method, on-line signature features are decomposed into multi-level signals by using the discrete wavelet transform, and then they are verified using the adaptive algorithm in time-frequency domain. Through computer simulations, the effectiveness of the proposed method is examined.

This paper presents a new signature verification technique that not only maximally allows variations in signatures of each person, but also discriminates effectively forgeries from true signatures. The signature verification system is designed to detect unstable portions in signatures of same person, and to give large weight on the portion that is difficult to imitate and plays an important role in signature verification. In registration mode, the system extracts subpatterns from training samples and analizes their consistency and singularity by calculating the variance and complexity of this portion. In verification mode, the system verifies a input signature by comparing corresponding subpatterns with the weights of reference subpatterns.

There are many research activities in various recognition areas using high calibered computing power. Among many areas, the signature recognition and verification have more difficulties than any other recognition area because signature itself contains many problems caused by a variation of psychological status of signer and other environment. In the case of signature, therefore, it is important to extract the better parameters required for the higher verification ratio. In this paper, signature pressure is extracted and used as feature parameters to determine whether the input signature is ture or forgery, and then input signature is verified by fuzzy similarity method. As a result of appling the fuzzy similarity method to the recognition system it is proven that the system has by far better verification ratio about 10% than existing methods.

Among the biometrics, signature shows more larger variation than the other biometrics such as fingerprint and iris. In order to overcome this problem, we propose a robust offline signature verification method based on PCA and LDA. Signature is projected to vertical and horizontal axes by new grid partition method. And then feature extraction and decision is performed by PCA and LDA. Experimental results show that the proposed offline signature verification has lower False Reject Rate(FRR) and False Acceptance Rate(FAR) which are 1.45% and 2.1%, respectively.

This paper is concerning off-line signature verification using a density function which is obtained by convolving the signature image with twelve-directional $5\times{5}$ gradient masks and the weighted fuzzy mean classifier. The twelve-directional density function based on Nevatia-Babu template gradient is related to the overall shape of a signature image and thus, utilized as a feature set. The weighted fuzzy mean classifier with the reference feature vectors extracted from only genuine signature samples is evaluated for the verification of freehand forgeries. The experimental results show that the proposed system can classify a signature whether it is genuine or forged with more than 98% overall accuracy even without any knowledge of varied freehand forgeries.
