Neutrosophic rule-based identity verification system based on handwritten dynamic signature analysis

Abstract

Identity verification using authenticity evaluation of handwritten signatures is an important issue. There have been several approaches for the verification of signatures using dynamics of the signing process. Most of these approaches extract only global characteristics.With the aim of capturing both dynamic global and local features, this paper introduces a novel model for verifying handwritten dynamic signatures using neutrosophic rule-based verification system(NRVS) and GeneticNRVS (GNRVS) models. The neutrosophic Logic is structured to reflect multiple types of knowledge and relations among all features using three values: Truth, indeterminacy, and falsity. These three values are determined by neutrosophic membership functions. The proposed model also is able to dealwith all features without the need to select from them. In the GNRVS model, the neutrosophic rules are automatically chosen by Genetic Algorithms. The performance of the proposed system is tested on theMCYT-Signature-100 dataset. In terms of the accuracy, average error rate, false acceptance rate, and false rejection rate, the experimental results indicate that the proposed model has a significant advantage compared to different well-known models.
