Off-line Signature Verification Using HMM for Random, Simple and Skilled Forgeries
نویسندگان
چکیده
The problem of signature verification is in theory a pattern recognition task used to discriminate two classes, original and forgery signatures. Even after many efforts in order to develop new verification techniques for static signature verification, the influence of the forgery types has not been extensively studied. This paper reports the contribution to signature verification considering different forgery types in an HMM framework. The experiments have shown that the error rates of the simple and random forgery signatures are very closed. This reflects the real applications in which the simple forgeries represent the principal fraudulent case. In addition, the experiments show promising results in skilled forgery verification by using simple static and pseudodinamic features.

The Interpersonal and Intrapersonal Variability Influences on Off-Line Signature Verification Using HMM
The off-line signature verification rests on the hypothesis that each writer has similarity among signature samples, with small distortion and scale variability. This kind of distortion represents the intrapersonal variability [3]. This paper reports the interpersonal and intrapersonal variability influences in a software approach based on Hidden Markov Model (HMM) classifier [1,5,7]. The exper...
متن کاملA comparison of SVM and HMM classifiers in the off-line signature verification
The SVM is a new classification technique in the field of statistical learning theory which has been applied with success in pattern recognition applications like face and speaker recognition, while the HMM has been found to be a powerful statistical technique which is applied to handwriting recognition and signature verification. This paper reports on a comparison of the two classifiers in off...
متن کاملDynamic selection of generative-discriminative ensembles for off-line signature verification
In practice, each writer provides only a limited number of signature samples to design a signature verification (SV) system. Hybrid generative-discriminative ensembles of classifiers (EoCs) are proposed in this paper to design an off-line SV system from few samples, where the classifier selection process is performed dynamically. To design the generative stage, multiple discrete left-to-right H...
متن کاملVital Sign: Personal Signature Based Biometric Authentication System
Signature is a behavioral biometric: it is not based on the physical properties, such as fingerprint or face, of the individual, but behavioral ones. Signature verification is split into two according to the available data in the input. Offline (static) signature verification takes as input the image of a signature and is useful in automatic verification of signatures found on bank checks and d...
متن کاملOff-line signature recognition based on dynamic methods
In this paper we present the work developed on off-line signature verification as a continuation of a previous work using Left-to-Right Hidden Markov Models (LR-HMM) in order to extend those models to the field of static or off-line signature processing using results provided by image connectivity analysis. The chain encoding of perimeter points for each blob obtained by this analysis is an ord...
