Printed Documents Authentication

Project description

A new method to secure documents

The EU has stressed the crucial importance of secure travel and identity documents. Improving security, however, is a challenge because document fraud – the falsification of documents and the manipulation of anti-forgery devices and techniques – is evolving rapidly. The use of more sophisticated document inspection systems is crucial. The EU-funded PRINTOUT project will develop a new method to fuse/ensemble machine learning approaches by considering several investigative scenarios and creating classifiers that reduce the risk of attacks. Specifically, the project proposes the use of open-set classifiers. The aim is to find solutions for several printed document forensics applications as regards their source attribution, forgery of documents and illegal copies detection.
