ABSTRACT
The use of signatures for personal identification and verification is quite common. Signatures are validated for many documents such as Bank cheques and legal transactions. The necessity for effective automated solutions for signature verification has grown as signatures are now a prerequisite for both authorization and authentication in legal activities. Two images—the original signature and the test signature—are used as input in this process. To determine whether the signature is fake or not, the characteristics that were extracted are compared, and the difference in error values between them is examined.
The growing digital landscape has increased the need for robust and efficient fraud detection systems. This project presents a unique approach to detecting signature fraud using deep learning techniques, specifically employing Siamese Neural Networks, implemented in Python.
With a dataset comprising 2149 signature images, encompassing both genuine and fraudulent samples from Dutch users, our model demonstrates remarkable accuracy. The Siamese Neural Network architecture excels in signature verification tasks by learning to distinguish between genuine and fraudulent signatures through contrastive learning.
The key achievement of this project is the exceptional accuracy levels attained during the training and validation phases. The model's training accuracy stands at an impressive 98.00%, while the validation accuracy reaches an astonishing 99.00%. These high accuracy rates are a testament to the effectiveness of Siamese Neural Networks in signature fraud detection.
In a world where the security of digital signatures is paramount, this project showcases the power of deep learning and Siamese Neural Networks in safeguarding against fraudulent activities. The model's success in accurately distinguishing between authentic and forged signatures offers promising potential for enhancing security measures in various domains, including finance, legal, and document management.
