Signature recognition is an example of behavioral biometrics that identifies a person based on their handwriting. It can be operated in two different ways:
Static: In this mode, users write their signature on paper, and after the writing is complete, it is digitized through an optical scanner or a camera to turn the signature image into bits.[1] The biometric system then recognizes the signature analyzing its shape. This group is also known as "off-line".[2]
Dynamic: In this mode, users write their signature in a digitizing tablet, which acquires the signature in real time. Another possibility is the acquisition by means of stylus-operated PDAs. Some systems also operate on smart-phones or tablets with a capacitive screen, where users can sign using a finger or an appropriate pen. Dynamic recognition is also known as "on-line". Dynamic information usually consists of the following information:[2]
spatial coordinate x(t)
spatial coordinate y(t)
pressure p(t)
azimuth az(t)
inclination in(t)
pen up/down
The state-of-the-art in signature recognition can be found in the last major international competition.[3]
The most popular pattern recognition techniques applied for signature recognition are dynamic time warping, hidden Markov models and vector quantization. Combinations of different techniques also exist.[4]
