This study proposes a method to distinguish fake documents from the originals using the textural structures of the papers they are printed on. The study is based on observations showing that paper textures are different and unique, just like fingerprint and iris tissue. This method, which captures the visually distinctive features of paper textures, can detect whether the documents of which the origin is suspected are fake or not. The proposed method can measure Type-2 error by training a Siamese network and thresholding the similarity results between two papers. Experimental results show that the proposed method has better distinguishing features than classical methods.
