From text to signatures: Knowledge transfer for efficient deep feature learning in offline signature verification

作者:

Highlights:

• Offline writer dependent signature verification using deep feature learning.

• Convolutional neural network is trained in handwritten text identification.

• Feature mapping through metric learning stage that utilizes contrastive loss.

• State-of-the-art performance with much less training signature samples.

• Skilled forgeries are not required at any training stage of the proposed system.
