Feature Representation for Online Signature Verification
Biometrics systems have been used in a wide range of applications and have
improved people authentication. Signature verification is one of the most
common biometric methods with techniques that employ various specifications of
a signature. Recently, deep learning has achieved great success in many fields,
such as image, sounds and text processing. In this paper, deep learning method
has been used for feature extraction and feature selection.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figures, Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Information

PADDLE: Proximal Algorithm for Dual Dictionaries LEarning
Recently, considerable research efforts have been devoted to the design of
methods to learn from data overcomplete dictionaries for sparse coding.
However, learned dictionaries require the solution of an optimization problem
for coding new data. In order to overcome this drawback, we propose an
algorithm aimed at learning both a dictionary and its dual: a linear mapping
directly performing the coding. By leveraging on proximal methods, our
algorithm jointly minimizes the reconstruction error of the dictionary and the
coding error of its dual; the sparsity of the representation is induced by an
-based penalty on its coefficients. The results obtained on synthetic
data and real images show that the algorithm is capable of recovering the
expected dictionaries. Furthermore, on a benchmark dataset, we show that the
image features obtained from the dual matrix yield state-of-the-art
classification performance while being much less computational intensive
