Automatic Signature Verification system is used to verify whether a signature is genuine or forged. Forged Signatures are those signatures that a person produced by imitating the signature of another person. Automatic Signature Verification is very important as a person’s handwritten signature is used everywhere to authenticate themselves and there is not very much difference between a genuine signature and the imitation of it, i.e. a forged signature. In this work, signature verification is done using different pre-trained Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Convolutional Neural Network has powerful learning ability, and it can be used to distinguish between a genuine and a forged signature automatically. In this experiment, Manipuri signature dataset was used, the dataset was prepared originally and it contains 729 genuine signatures and 243 forged signatures. Features were extracted from pre-trained networks and classification was done using binary Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and the performances of the networks were compared. And according to the experiment we achieved a classification accuracy of 84.7 using VGG19 features, accuracy of 86.8 using VGG16 features and accuracy of 81.9 using Alexnet features.

Handwritten Signature

In the field of pattern recognition, automatic handwritten signature verification is of the essence. The uniqueness of each person’s signature makes it a preferred choice of human biometrics. However, the unavoidable side-effect is that they can be misused to feign data authenticity. In this paper, we present an improved feature extraction vector for offline signature verification system by combining features of grey level occurrence matrix (GLCM) and properties of image regions. In evaluating the performance of the proposed scheme, the resultant feature vector is tested on a support vector machine (SVM) with varying kernel functions. However, to keep the parameters of the kernel functions optimized, the sequential minimal optimization (SMO) and the least square method was used. Results of the study explained that the radial basis function (RBF) coupled with SMO best support the improved featured vector proposed.

Signature is used for recognition of an individual. Signature is considered as a mark that an individual write on a paper for his/her identity or proof. It is used as a unique feature for identifying an individual. It is highly used in social and business functions which gives rise to verification of signature. There are chances of signature getting forged. Hence, the need to identify signature as genuine of forged is utmost important. In this paper, identification of signature as genuine or forged is done using two approaches. First approach is using SVM and second is using CNN. For SVM, pre-processing of signature image is done and feature extraction is performed. Features extracted are histogram of gradient, shape, aspect ratio, bounding area, contour area and convex hull area. Further, SVM is applied to classify signature as genuine or forged and accuracy is determined. In the second approach, signature image is pre-processed, CNN is used to classify signature as genuine or forged and accuracy is determined. Dataset used here is ICDAR Dutch dataset along with 80 signatures taken from 4 people.Dutch dataset consists of 362 signature imagesand signature images taken from 4 people consists 10 genuine and 10 forged signatures which sums to 442 signature images. The proposed system provides accuracy of 86.39% using SVM and around 83.78% using CNN.

Distinct Features

Recognising one’s identity to enter a system is called authentication. This process can take various forms where users input the system with a set of identifying credentials to access the system. Signatures belong to behavioural biometric, where the distinct features of every individual are considered in order to corroborate the person’s identity. The act of falsely imitating one’s signature biometric to impersonate and leverage access to their asset is called signature forgery. Our paper presents a comparative study of various deep learning models using Siamese architecture, over a wide catalogue of signature images. Openly available datasets like CEDAR, Handwritten Signatures dataset from Kaggle, ICDAR 2011 SigComp, and BH-Sig260 signature corpus are used to train the models. A set of classifiers – Support Vector Classifiers (SVC), Gaussian Naïve Bayes (GNB), Logistic Regression (LR) and K-Nearest Neighbours (KNN) are applied sequentially to classify the signature as genuine or forged.

Off-line hand written signature verification performs at the global level of image. It processes the gray level information in the image using statistical texture features. The textures and co-occurrence matrix are analyzed for features extraction. A first order histogram is also processed to reduce different writing ink pens used by signers. Samples of signature are trained with SVM model where random and skilled forgeries have been used for testing. Experimental results are performed on two databases: MCYT-75 and GPDS Synthetic Signature Corpus.

The signature process is one of the most significant processes used by organizations to preserve the security of information and protect it from unwanted penetration or access. As organizations and individuals move into the digital environment, there is an essential need for a computerized system able to distinguish between genuine and forged signatures in order to protect people's authorization and decide what permissions they have. In this paper, we used Pre-Trained CNN for extracts features from genuine and forged signatures, and three widely used classification algorithms, SVM (Support Vector Machine), NB (Naive Bayes) and KNN (k-nearest neighbors), these algorithms are compared to calculate the run time, classification error, classification loss and accuracy for test-set consist of signature images (genuine and forgery). Three classifiers have been applied using (UTSig) dataset; where run time, classification error, classification loss and accuracy were calculated for each classifier in the verification phase, the results showed that the SVM and KNN got the best accuracy (76.21), while the SVM got the best run time (0.13) result among other classifiers, therefore the SVM classifier got the best result among the other classifiers in terms of our measures.
