FIGURE 4
A template made up of regions with crisp boundaries performed as well as the template with fuzzy boundaries when processing a scaled signature. The top plot shows the templates; you place the crisp boundaries (solid lines) where the fuzzy boundaries (dashed lines) have values of 0.5. The bottom plot shows the running averages of both crisp and fuzzy values. The two plots correlate in time and demonstrate how, when the signal being tested is within the region boundaries, the running average increases (or holds constant at unity), and when the signal is outside region boundaries, the running average decreases.
