Review on Off-Line Signature Verification Techniques for Reducing Forgeries/Fraud

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 178))

Abstract

Signatures continue to be an important biometric for authenticating the identity of human beings and reducing forgeries. The major challenging aspect of automated signature identification and verification has been, for a long time, a true motivation for researchers. Research into signature verification has been vigorously pursued for a number of years and is still being explored, especially in the offline mode. In this paper, we have discussed a brief overview of offline signature verification techniques for reducing forgeries and some of the most relevant perspectives are highlighted.
