Recognition and verification systems plays very critical role in the area of information security as they are very essential to user certification. In resent years, off-line signature recognition and verification receiving renewed interest and only one of several techniques used to verify the identities of individuals, also that one of the biometric techniques. Signatures offer a secure means for confirmation and authorization in legal documents. Thus, nowadays the signature identification and verification becomes an indispensable part for including embedded signatures of automating the rapid processing of documents. Researchers have been proposed various approaches for handwritten signature recognition and verification in the past years. This paper presents a survey for non-western handwritten signature based offline signature verification and identification. In this area, the accuracy rates obtained so far from the available systems is not sufficiently high, and more researches on off-line signature verification as well as off-line signature identification are required.
