# 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**
1. `t` : Relative timestamp in seconds (starts at `0.0` for the first point).
2. `x_rel`, `y_rel` : Relative coordinates in [0, 1], to be multiplied by `width`/`height` to recover pixel positions.
3. `force` : Pen pressure (unitless).
4. `altitude` : Pen altitude angle in **radians**.
5. `azimuth_sin`, `azimuth_cos` : Sine and cosine of pen azimuth angle in **radians**.
