Biometric systems are playing a key role in the multitude of applications and placed at the
center of debate in the scientific research community. Among the numerous biometric …

A function-based approach to on-line signature verification is presented. The system uses a
set of time sequences and Hidden Markov Models (HMMs). Development and evaluation …

Reinforced concrete is subjected to deterioration due to aging, increased load, and natural
hazards. To minimize the maintenance costs and to increase the operation lifetime …

The limited battery capacity of sensor nodes has become the biggest impediment to wireless
sensor network (WSN) applications. Two recent breakthroughs in the areas of wireless …

Biometric user authentication techniques evoke an enormous interest by science, industry
and society. Scientists and developers constantly pursue technology for automated …

In this paper, we propose a novel writer-independent global feature extraction framework for
the task of automatic signature verification which aims to make robust systems for …

In this paper we address the task of writer identification of on-line handwriting captured from
a whiteboard. Different sets of features are extracted from the recorded data and used to …

This paper presents a novel online signature verification system based on the extension of
the traditional dynamic time warping (DTW) matching scheme. We propose the use of a set …

Signature verification is one of the most accepted biometric techniques, because a signature
is a part of everyday life, although less accurate than biometric techniques such as using the …

Automatic signature verification is an important research area because of the social and
legal acceptance and widespread use of the handwritten signature as a personal …
