On-line Signature Verification: An Approach Based on Cluster Representations of Global Features
D. S. Guru, H. N. Srikanta Prakash, S. Manjunath · 2009
In this paper, we propose a new method of representation of on-line signatures by clustering of signatures. Our idea is to provide better representation by clustering of signatures based on global features. Global features of signatures of each cluster are used to form an interval valued feature vector which is a symbolic representation for a cluster. Based on cluster representation, we propose methods of signature verification. We compare the feasibility of the proposed representation scheme for signature verification on a large MCYT_ signature database of 16500 signatures. Unlike other signature verification methods, the proposed method is simple and efficient and in addition, shows a remarkable reduction in EER.
