Offline Handwritten Signature Verification - Literature Review
The area of Handwritten Signature Verification has been broadly researched in
the last decades, but remains an open research problem. The objective of
signature verification systems is to discriminate if a given signature is
genuine (produced by the claimed individual), or a forgery (produced by an
impostor). This has demonstrated to be a challenging task, in particular in the
offline (static) scenario, that uses images of scanned signatures, where the
dynamic information about the signing process is not available. Many
advancements have been proposed in the literature in the last 5-10 years, most
notably the application of Deep Learning methods to learn feature
representations from signature images. In this paper, we present how the
problem has been handled in the past few decades, analyze the recent
advancements in the field, and the potential directions for future research.Comment: Accepted to the International Conference on Image Processing Theory,

Homomorphic Encryption for Speaker Recognition: Protection of Biometric Templates and Vendor Model Parameters
Data privacy is crucial when dealing with biometric data. Accounting for the
latest European data privacy regulation and payment service directive,
biometric template protection is essential for any commercial application.
Ensuring unlinkability across biometric service operators, irreversibility of
leaked encrypted templates, and renewability of e.g., voice models following
the i-vector paradigm, biometric voice-based systems are prepared for the
latest EU data privacy legislation. Employing Paillier cryptosystems, Euclidean
and cosine comparators are known to ensure data privacy demands, without loss
of discrimination nor calibration performance. Bridging gaps from template
protection to speaker recognition, two architectures are proposed for the
two-covariance comparator, serving as a generative model in this study. The
first architecture preserves privacy of biometric data capture subjects. In the
second architecture, model parameters of the comparator are encrypted as well,
such that biometric service providers can supply the same comparison modules
employing different key pairs to multiple biometric service operators. An
experimental proof-of-concept and complexity analysis is carried out on the
data from the 2013-2014 NIST i-vector machine learning challenge
Handwritten Signature Verification using Deep Learning
Every person has his/her own unique signature that is used mainly for the purposes of personal
identification and verification of important documents or legal transactions. There are two kinds of signature
verification: static and dynamic. Static(off-line) verification is the process of verifying an electronic or document
signature after it has been made, while dynamic(on-line) verification takes place as a person creates his/her
signature on a digital tablet or a similar device. Offline signature verification is not efficient and slow for a large
number of documents. To overcome the drawbacks of offline signature verification, we have seen a growth in
online biometric personal verification such as fingerprints, eye scan etc. In this paper we created CNN model
using python for offline signature and after training and validating, the accuracy of testing was 99.70%
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
