Abstract

In this paper we propose a multi-expert architecture, particularly suited for verification systems, which attempts to offer the performance advantages of a serial approach while retaining the reliability of a parallel combination scheme. In this framework, criteria for evaluating the reliability of both the intermediate answers and the final response are provided, together with a method for the determination of an optimal reject option. This architecture has been tested on a signature verification application, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
