Abstract Signature verification is commonly used for the signature is real or fake. Signatures are used in banks, offices, and legal documents. Fraudulent signatures can cause serious financial loss. Manual signature verification is not always reliable. Human errors may occur during verification. Therefore, an automatic signature fraud detection system is needed. This project focuses on signature fraud detection using deep learning methods. The system works with offline handwritten signature images. Signature samples are collected from different individuals. These samples are converted into digital image format. Image preprocessing is performed to remove noise. Image resizing and normalization are also applied. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is used for feature extraction. CNN helps in identifying important signature patterns. It learns features such as shape, curves, and strokes. CNN improves accuracy in image classification tasks. It reduces the need for manual feature selection. Siamese Neural Network is used for signature comparison. It compares two signature images at a time. The network checks similarity between input signatures. It determines whether the signatures belong to the same person. Siamese network is effective for verification problems. The system compares test signatures with stored reference signatures. Based on similarity score, the signature is verified. The output shows whether the signature is genuine or forged. The model is trained using labeled signature data. Testing is done using unknown signature samples. The performance is measured using accuracy and error rate. The system provides fast and reliable results. It reduces dependency on manual verification. This method improves security in authentication systems. It is suitable for banking and document verification applications.
