Website improvements and new study cases for signatures

During the last two weeks, we improved the performance of the website. Now the website is replicated on different CloudFlare servers worldwide, in order to guarantee a good performance wherever you connect from. Secondly, I added Let’s Encrypt SSL certificates, and the website is new fully functional on HTTPS. At this point we are quite happy with the performance and the basis. Thirdly, I added LiveChat support, so now I can communicate with the visitors and customers in real time, and guide them. The next improvement on this direction may be adding multi-language support, specifically Spanish and Portuguese. Many payment options are now supported through Stripe, and we will add Paypal support soon.

I added two study cases for the performance of the model with signatures: One using a public dataset of signatures including skilled forgeries, and our first study on Picasso signatures. The studies returned 100% and 95% success on the classification of 20 test signatures on each case. Feel free to write us for more details about the methodology and the results.

The goals for the week ahead is to upload the test cases regarding the results for the authentication of drawings from The Lost Arles Sketchbook , Welsh- Ovacharov, Bogomila ISBN 10: 1419725947 – ISBN 13: 9781419725944, and The Langlois Bridge in Arles, 1888?, Watercolor, 30×19.5. Both ones have been very controversial (specially the sketchbook), and have been recently deemed as Not drawn by Van Gogh by the Van Gogh Museum.
