In this paper, we propose an algorithm for on-line signature recognition using fingertip point in the air from the depth image acquired by Kinect. We extract 10 statistical features from X, Y, Z axis, which are invariant to changes in shifting and scaling of the signature trajectories in three-dimensional space. Artificial neural network is adopted to solve the complex signature classification problem. 30 dimensional features are converted into 10 principal components using principal component analysis, which is 99.02% of total variances. We implement the proposed algorithm and test to actual on-line signatures. In experiment, we verify the proposed method is successful to classify 15 different on-line signatures. Experimental result shows 98.47% of recognition rate when using only 10 feature vectors.
