CDIT's Automated Signature Verification (ASV) solution uses advanced AI technology to extract Static signatures from a document or image, and then verifies its authenticity. The process typically involves the following steps:
Features
Signature Extraction
The solution uses image processing algorithms to identify the signature within the document or image. This can be done through techniques such as feature extraction, edge detection, and pattern recognition.
Signature Preprocessing
The solution then cleans and preprocesses the signature to remove any noise or artifacts that might affect the verification process.
Signature Verification
The solution compares the extracted signature with a reference signature to determine whether they match. The reference signature could be a previously known signature from the same individual or a digital signature stored in a database.
Verification Result
Based on the result of the verification process, the solution can either authenticate the signature or flag it as fraudulent. ASV can also include biometric authentication methods such as facial recognition to further enhance the security and reliability of the signature verification process.

Election Cycles generate millions of mail-in ballots and ballot applications which present a unique problem for counties, cities and townships. They are tasked with the laborious process of comparing signatures on ballot envelopes/applications against verified reference signatures to ensure voter authenticity before they can be processed.
Automated Signature Verification for Postal Voting (ASV-PV) uses advanced AI technologies and a Reference Signature Database to expedite the signature validation process of postal voting, and minimizes operational risk by providing a complete audit trail/reports of the process.
ASV-PV utilizes multiple advanced AI techniques to analyze signature patterns, providing a highly automated and efficient method of performing signature verification
