Comparative Analysis of Dynamic Characteristics between Electronic Signature and Conventional Signature Based on Computer Vision Technology

Abstract

During the last two or three decades where innovations in technology have been dominant, especially the rapid development of electronic information technology, various types of electronic devices have been developed for different application areas. It is this technological-assisted equipment that has drastic effects on the lifestyle of every creature in general and human beings in particular. In addition to the other activities or services, technology has enabled human beings to write on electronic devices, which is due to the fact that these devices will generate electronic signature handwriting that is extremely useful for human beings. They may effectively cope with the electronization of traditional signature handwriting and ease the difficulties of authenticating the identification information of the signatory of electronic documents when used in conjunction with electronic documents. This method is frequently utilized in e-government, e-commerce, banking and insurance, medical care, and other industries. This study uses the current mainstream computer vision technology to compare and analyze the handwriting dynamic characteristics of electronic signature and conventional signature. It uses the electronic signature God and software to collect and extract the original characteristic data of user’s electronic signature and then extracts the characteristics of average writing speed, duration, and average pressure on the basis of these data for analysis. Among these techniques, the writing time of electronic signature is longer than that of conventional signature, and the average speed of conventional signature notes is higher than that of electronic signature, and when analyzing the average pressure characteristics, the conventional signature pressure is greater than the electronic signature pressure.

Dynamic feature analysis of handwritten electronic signatures based on Fourier transform

“…The international community of forensic scientists has conducted extensive research on the similarities and distinctions between handwritten electronic signatures and handwritten paper-based signatures [2][3][4]. Findings indicate significant differences in the dynamic features of handwritten electronic signatures compared with their traditional counterpart.…”
