As the use of signatures for identification purposes is pervasive in society and has a long history in business, dynamic signature verification (DSV) could be an answer to authenticating a document signed electronically and establishing the identity of that document in a dispute. DSV has the advantage in that traits of the signature can be collected on a digitizer. The research question of this paper is to understand how the individual variables vary across devices. In applied applications, this is important because if the signature variables change across the digitizers this will impact performance and the ability to use those variable. Understanding which traits are consistent across devices will aid dynamic signature algorithm designers to create more robust algorithms.

The purpose of this study is to examine Hangul signature changes of writers under the influence of alcohol using Scale for Handwriting Identification (SHWI). It has been recognized that handwriting is influenced by alcohol. However, in Korea, there has been no study which examined the handwriting changes after drinking alcohol. This study confirmed the differences between signatures in sobriety at police station (SIS) and signatures under the influence of alcohol at sobriety checkpoint (S-UIA) by analyzing the Hangul signature of 30 persons. The comparative characteristics are size, space, omission, writing order, connection. The changes of more than one characteristic were observed among the 27 out of 30 persons. Three of 30 persons did not show any change between S-IS and S-UIA.

As network traffic is dramatically increasing due to the popularization of Internet, the need for application traffic identification becomes important for the effective use of network resources. In this paper, we present an Internet application traffic identification method based on flow correlation to overcome limitation of signature-based identification methods and to improve performance (completeness) of it. The proposed method can identify unidentified flows from signature-based method using flow correlation between identified and unidentified flows. We propose four separate correlation methods such as Server-Client, Time, Host-Host, and Statistic correlation and describe a flow correlation-based identification system architecture which incorporates the four separate methods. Also we prove the feasibility and applicability of our proposed method by an acceptable experimental result.

Chaum and Heyst first proposed group signature which is based on the undeniable signature. So, a receiver of the signature can't verify a group signature without cooperation of the signer and, in case of dispute later on, he can't reveal the identity of the signer without help of the group members. Park et. al. proposed an id-based group signature with self-authentication, in which the receiver of the signature reveals the identity of the signer without help of the group members. However, the proposed scheme has two problem : 1) the receiver can't identify the signer, since every keys of the group members hold the identification procedure. 2) By collusion of the group members, new secret key for a group signature can be computed and the secret key of the trusted center can be revealed.

Nowadays, the traffic type and behavior are extremely diverse due to the appearance of various services on Internet, which makes the need of traffic identification important for efficient operation and management of network. In recent years traffic identification methodology using statistical features of flow has been broadly studied. We also proposed a traffic identification methodology using payload size distribution in our previous work, which has a problem of low completeness. In this paper, we improved the completeness by solving the PSD conflict using IP and port. And we improved the accuracy by changing the distance measurement between flow and statistic signature from vector distance to per-packet distance. The feasibility of our methodology was proved via experimental evaluation on our campus network.

The Integrated Ballistics Identification Systems (IBIS) is widely used for bullet and casing signature identification. The IBIS obtains a pair of ballistic signatures from two bullets (or casings) using optical microscopy, and estimates a correlation score which can represent the degree of signature match. However, this method largely depends on lighting and surface conditions because optical image contrast is primarily a function of test surface's slope, shadowing, multiple reflections, optical properties, and illumination direction. Moreover, it can be affected with surface height variation. To overcome these problems and improve the identification system, we used well known surface topographic techniques, such as confocal microscopy and white-light scanning interferometry. The measuring instruments were calibrated by a NIST step height standard and verified by a NIST sinusoidal profile roughness standard and a commercial roughness standard. We also suggest a new analysis method for the ballistic identification. In this method, the maximum cross-correlation function CCFmax is used to quantify the degree of signature match. If the compared signatures were exactly the same, CCFmax would be $100\%$.

Image identification is the process of checking whether the query image is the transformed version of the specific original image or not. In this paper, image identification method based on feature composition is proposed. Used features include color distance, texture information and average pixel intensity. We extract color characteristics using color distance and texture information by Modified Generalized Symmetry Transform as well as average intensity of each pixel as features. Individual feature is quantized adaptively to be used as bins of histogram. The histogram is normalized according to data type and it is used as the signature in comparing the query image with database images. In matching part, Manhattan distance is used for measuring distance between two signatures. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, independent test and accuracy test are achieved. In independent test, 60,433 images are used to evaluate the ability of discrimination between different images. And 4,002 original images and its 29 transformed versions are used in accuracy test, which evaluate the ability that the proposed algorithm can find the original image correctly when some transforms was applied in original image. Experiment results show that the proposed identification method has good performance in accuracy test. And the proposed method is very useful in real environment because of its high accuracy and fast matching capacity.

A video signature is a set of feature vectors that compactly represents and uniquely characterizes one video clip from another for fast matching. To find a short duplicated region, the video signature must be robust against common video modifications and have a high discriminability. The matching method must be fast and be successful at finding locations. In this paper, a frame-based video signature that uses the spatial information and a two-stage matching method is presented. The proposed method is pair-wise independent and is robust against common video modifications. The proposed two-stage matching method is fast and works very well in finding locations. In addition, the proposed matching structure and strategy can distinguish a case in which a part of the query video matches a part of the target video. The proposed method is verified using video modified by the VCE7 experimental conditions found in MPEG-7. The proposed video signature method achieves a robustness of 88.7% under an independence condition of 5 parts per million with over 1,000 clips being matched per second.

In order to take rapid action against malware, efficiency in malware analysis is essential. For instance, it would be helpful to identify and eliminate open-source function bodies or other safe portions out of the target binary codes. In this paper, we propose an tool to create open source dynamic link library files in Windows environment, extract signature information by opensource and compiler version, and compare open source function information to find suspicious function. In addition, the tool can save the information used in the comparison to the DB and use it later, reducing the analysis time overhead.

PGP is an encryption software designed to provide information protection, security and authentication services for online communication systems. The characteristic of behavior done on the Internet is that you don't know the other person. It is very important to protect information from someone you cannot trust. So identification of the other person is an important task. PGP uses an digital signature algorithm to verify the identity of the other party. However, it is not accurate to check the other party's credibility. PGP increases trust as other users sign more on public keys of user. In other words, credibility is not perfect. In this paper, PGP certification system that key management in Ethereum blockchain, one of the blockchain platforms, is proposed. Key management in blockchain ensures data integrity, transparency and reliability.
