视觉欺骗已经成为一个严重的网络安全问题。在Web上使用Unicode字符的急剧增长引入了新类型的视觉攻击。这些攻击的主要来源是Unicode空间中存在许多相似的字形（字符），攻击者可以利用这些字形混淆用户。因此，检测视觉相似字符是Web安全中一个非常重要的问题。在本文中，我们探讨了一种方法来定义Unicode字形之间的视觉相似性。实验结果表明，该方法可以有效地检测出Unicode字形之间的相似度。
Visual spoofing has become a serious web security problem. The dramatic growth of using Unicode characters on the web has introduced new types of visual attacks. The main source of these attacks is the existence of many similar glyphs (characters) in the Unicode space which can be utilized by attackers to confuse users. Therefore, detecting visually similar characters is a very important issue in web security. In this paper, we explore an approach to defining the visual similarity between Unicode glyphs. The results of the experiments show that the proposed method can effectively detect the "amount" of similarity between a pair of Unicode glyphs.
