Abstract

Image authentication is important in content delivery to preserve originality as well as integrity of data. Using handwritten signature we can authenticate a person accurately. This paper proposes an efficient image authentication technique by hiding handwritten signature image in selected DWT sub-band of the image. At the receiver end signature image is extracted and verified with template signature using Artificial Neural Network and hence image authentication is achieved.
