In keeping with recent developments in artificial intelligence in the era of big data, there is a demand for online signature verification systems that operate at high speeds, provide a high level of security, and allow high tolerances while achieving sufficient performance. In response to these needs, the present study proposes a novel, single-template strategy using a mean template set and weighted multiple dynamic time warping (DTW) distances for a function-based approach to online signature verification. Specifically, to obtain an effective mean template for each feature while reflecting intra-user variability between all the reference samples, we adopt a novel time-series averaging method based on Euclidean barycenter-based DTW barycenter averaging. Then, by using the mean template set, we calculate multiple DTW distances from multivariate time series based on dependent and independent warping. Finally, to boost the discriminative power, we apply a weighting scheme using a gradient boosting model to efficiently combine the multiple DTW distances. Experimental results using the common SVC2004 Task1/Task2 and MCYT-100 signature datasets confirm that the proposed method is effective for online signature verification.
