Signature Recognition Using Machine Learning

Problem Statement
Recognizing signature by considering the assumptions that
due to the use of different pens/stylus will not change the
owner of signature, the fact that no two signatures of the
same person are exactly same and any mark on the paper or
any such element should not affect while recognizing the
signature.

Handwritten Signature Recognition And

Verification
Procedure
1. Acquire the signature image
2. Image-preprocessing
3. Extract the various features
4. Use these features to train the system using
KNN algorithm
5. Test the signature
6. Take decision as original or forgery

Image preprocessing

•Resizeimage to 100*200 pixel

•Convert image into black and white
Feature Extraction

If we are to compare two sketches; there should be

at least one measurement on which to base this
comparison. The main function is to generate features
which can be used as comparison measurements.
This will be implemented using Histogram of
Oriented Gradient.
Training and Testing
•To store the extracted features of the dataset and
use this as a reference when classifying signature
using KNN.
