Abstract:

The signature has been crucial tool for authentication of any specified person. In the current era, it has been instrumental in the checking out the forgery and frauds. The whole of the database is secured online through digital signature and other biometrics. However, the stat says that the banks and the other financial institution faces the signature verification problems on the cheques, DDs, and other documents. So, the offline signature verification is indispensable equipments for countering the fakes and other forgery. This means that the signature as a proof of declared test signature template. Euclidian distance in the feature space between the claimed signature and the template serves as a measure of similarity between the two. If this distance is less than a pre-defined threshold (corresponding to minimum acceptable degree of similarity), the test signature is verified to be that of the claimed subject else detected as a forgery. This paper presents a method Offline Signature Verification using a set of simple geometric features based. The features that are used are Baseline Slant Angle, Aspect Ratio, Normalized Area, Center of Gravity and the Slope of the line joining the Centers of Gravity of two halves of a signature image.
