This paper presents a static signature verification system based on the concept of local stability. Stable regions are detected in the signatures, during the enrolling phase, and are considered to be those regions affected by low variations of features among the training set. The stability evaluation is based on the Hamming distance. Stable regions are successively used for verification, in the running phase. A region-oriented verification strategy is considered, based on a well-defined similarity measure which takes into account the variability in signing of the writer. The experimental results, carried out on signatures from the GPDS database, demonstrate the viability of proposed approach.

Abstract
This paper presents a static signature verification system based on the concept of local stability. Stable regions are detected in the signatures, during the enrolling phase, and are considered to be those regions affected by low variations of features among the training set. The stability evaluation is based on the Hamming distance. Stable regions are successively used for verification, in the running phase. A region-oriented verification strategy is considered, based on a well-defined similarity measure which takes into account the variability in signing of the writer. The experimental results, carried out on signatures from the GPDS database, demonstrate the viability of proposed approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
