The signature verification methods and devices disclosed herein can be used to verify signatures signed on electronic key pads and other input devices, such as signature pens. Many different aspects of a dynamic signature can be measured in an attempt to verify the signature, including, but not limited to spatial measurements, measurements over time, and frequency. These measurements can be of points on a signature, but they can also be pressure, velocity, and acceleration, to name just a few. These different aspects can then be analyzed using, for example, time series, and spectral similarities. Further, the spectral similarities can be analyzed using wavelet-transforms. In another embodiment, these analysis systems and methods can be applied to written signatures as well as dynamic written signatures.
