Signature Forgery Detection using Deep Learning

In this age of digitalization, everything is online, paying bills, placing orders, filling documents, songs, etc. As more and more activities comes to online platforms a really important problem arises how to check the authority of the person on the Net.

Of course Passwords can’t be used every time and especially in cases where the user needs to provide a signature (digitally). We will be overcoming this problem in this story.

PROBLEM STATEMENT

We will be making a model to predict whether a signature is Forged or Not.

LIBRARY AND CONCEPTS

Convolutional neural network
Numpy
Keras
Matplotlib / Seaborn

Methodology

We have Image of size 268 x 650, here the color of the image is not of much significance as the ink of pen does not contribute to our problem in any way. We will be using a Simple Convolutional Network.

Modeling

Our CNN Model starts with 32 filters and 3×3 Kernel Size Followed by a MaxPooling Layer of 2×2. After some of these layers we increase the filters to 64 to capture features in a better way.
