Abstract

The adaptive dynamic signature verification system of the invention includes a number of types of signature verification terminals which digitize signatures for further verification by statistical analysis. A feature set is employed that consists of a number of personalized features, some static and some dynamic, each of which is normalized with respect to both time and spatial dimensions and allows for a degree of inconsistency in both speed and size of genuine signatures without losing the ability to discriminate against forgery attempts. The statistical approach also develops and employs either an individual-specific or a common feature subset for accurate signature discrimination.
