Popis: Online signature verification (OSV) is widely used in finance, law and other fields, and is one of the important research projects on biological characteristics. However, its data set has a small scale and has high requirements for generalization of certification models. Therefore, how to overcome these problems is of great value to improve the practicality and security of online handwriting signature technology. We propose a writer-independent online handwritten signature verification method, which adopts the relative position matrix method to convert the traditional temporal features into images for processing. This method enriched the features of the signatures, serving the purpose of data augmentation. Then two-dimensional multi-scale feature fusion based Siamese neural network (2D-MFFnet) is built for representing and learning the importance of each channel adaptively combined with the attention mechanism. Finally, a temporal convolutional network is designed to construct the classifier. The results illustrate that compared with traditional time series models, the algorithm has reduced the equal error rate by at least 2.52 % on the open datasets MCYT-100 and SVC2004 task2.
