SignSeq Dataset
The SignSeq dataset contains time-series handwriting signature traces collected at 240 Hz by Apple Pencil on iPad. Each example records the full stroke sequence along with per-stroke metadata and a rendered preview image. Intended use cases include signature generation, style analysis, and handwriting modelling.
Features
Each record contains the following fields:
Field | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
created_at |
string |
ISO-8601 timestamp of recording start. |
sequence |
sequence<sequence<float>> |
A list of points: each [t, x_rel, y_rel, force, altitude, azimuth_sin, azimuth_cos] . |
width |
float64 |
Original signature width. Used to de-normalize x_rel back to pixel coordinates. |
height |
float64 |
Original signature height. Used to de-normalize y_rel back to pixel coordinates. |
preview_image |
image |
PNG rendering of the full signature trace. |
num_points |
int64 |
Total number of captured points in sequence . |
duration |
float64 |
Recording duration in seconds. |
avg_force |
float64 |
Mean pen pressure over the signature. |
min_force |
float64 |
Minimum pen pressure. |
max_force |
float64 |
Maximum pen pressure. |
avg_altitude |
float64 |
Mean pen altitude angle (radians). |
min_altitude |
float64 |
Minimum pen altitude angle (radians). |
max_altitude |
float64 |
Maximum pen altitude angle (radians). |
avg_azimuth_sin |
float64 |
Mean sine of pen azimuth angle (radians). |
min_azimuth_sin |
float64 |
Minimum sine of pen azimuth angle (radians). |
max_azimuth_sin |
float64 |
Maximum sine of pen azimuth angle (radians). |
avg_azimuth_cos |
float64 |
Mean cosine of pen azimuth angle (radians). |
min_azimuth_cos |
float64 |
Minimum cosine of pen azimuth angle (radians). |
max_azimuth_cos |
float64 |
Maximum cosine of pen azimuth angle (radians). |
signer |
string |
Anonymized signer identifier. |
Notes on sequence
- Element breakdown
t
: Relative timestamp in seconds (starts at0.0
for the first point).x_rel
,y_rel
: Relative coordinates in [0, 1], to be multiplied bywidth
/height
to recover pixel positions.force
: Pen pressure (unitless).altitude
: Pen altitude angle in radians.azimuth_sin
,azimuth_cos
: Sine and cosine of pen azimuth angle in radians.
