Abstract

In order to improve the offline handwritten signature recognition effect, an offline handwritten signature recognition method based on discrete curvelet transform is proposed. First, the necessary pre-processing of offline handwritten signatures is carried out, including grayscale, binarization, smooth denoising, etc. The pre-processed signature image is subjected to curvelet transform to obtain real-numbered curve coefficients in the cell matrix, and a total of 82-dimensional energy features are extracted, and multi-scale block local binary mode (MBLBP) is combined on the cell matrix of discrete curvelet transform to form a new signature feature, use the SVM classifier for training and classification. Experiments on two databases, Uyghur and Kirgiz, the highest accuracy was 97.95% and 97.42% respectively. The experimental results show that the proposed method has better accuracy in offline handwritten signature recognition.
