%X Verifying the authenticity of handwritten signatures is required in various current life domains, notably with official contracts, banking or financial transactions. Therefore, in this paper a novel histogram-based descriptor and an improved classification of the bio-inspired Artificial Immune Recognition System (AIRS) are proposed for handwritten signature verification. Precisely, the Histogram Of Templates (HOT) is introduced to characterize the most widespread orientations of local strokes in handwritten signatures, while the combination of AIRS and SVM is proposed to achieve the verification task. Usually, using the k Nearest Neighbor rule, a questioned signature is classified by computing dissimilarities with respect to all AIRS outputs. In this work, using these dissimilarities, a second round of training is achieved by the SVM classifier to further improve the discrimination power. In comparison with existing methods, the experiments on two widely-used datasets show the potential and the effectiveness of the proposed system.
