Abstract: Verification of remotely deposited checks may be conducted in a system or for electronically receiving check images from customers and automatically initiating a deposit of funds associated with such check. Verification may comprise analyzing an image to detecting a presence of signatures, e.g. a payor signature and an endorsement, on a received check image so as to validate a check. Verification may further comprise conducting “face recognition” of a received check image to verify it's authenticity and/or detecting MICR line indications that a check is no longer valid.
