Abstract: Signature is one of the biometric traits that are being used in person authentication and due to its dominant usage; it became one of the top subjects of forgery. In this study, a signature verification using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is proposed. With the use of transfer learning, inception-v3 is mainly used for the feature extraction of data samples and for classification of signatures. The proposed method is assessed on dataset of handwritten signatures gathered from 4 people with 100 signatures each. The testing results determine the threshold value which is 96.43%. Factors that affect the accuracy of the result were also identified.
