Abstract

Off-line Signature Verification (SV) is performed using Particle Swarm Optimisation Neural Network (PSO NN) algorithm. The technique is based on NN approach trained with PSO algorithm. The presented verification system includes image-processing techniques and other mathematical tools in its structure. To test the performance of the proposed algorithm, three types of forgeries, namely random, unskilled and skilled, are examined. A database with 1350 skilled and genuine signatures taken from 25 volunteers is used for testing the algorithm. The experimental results are presented with comparisons on verification accuracy and statistical figures.
