On-line signature verification using wavelet packet

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for on-line signature verification using wavelet packet. Signatures are first normalized and resampled, thus they have the same number of sample points. Then, several types of local features are extracted, so that wavelet transform can be applied on them. After that, we conduct experiments to select the best local features, wavelet bases and wavelet packet settings. Also, experiments are carried out to verify the reliability and efficiency of our approach, which performs better than discrete wavelet transform and competes with the state-of-arts.
