Abstract With the increasing number of document forgery and economic dispute cases, the accurate identification of homochromy inks is of great significance in judicial expertise. Traditional methods (such as thin-layer chromatography and Raman spectroscopy) have limitations including sample destruction and time-consuming procedures. At the same time, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has emerged as a promising alternative due to its advantages of image-spectrum integration and non-destructive detection. However, the existing ink classification methods based on “dimension reduction and clustering” are difficult to fully explore the nonlinear characteristics of high-dimensional data, and shallow machine learning models have limited expressive ability and are susceptible to information loss and error accumulation. Therefore, a deep learning model HI-CNN integrating multi-scale convolution and channel attention mechanism is proposed in this paper, and it is combined with hyperspectral imaging for the identification of homochromy inks. The model employs multi-branch parallel convolution to extract spectral features at different scales, comprehensively capturing spectral information across bands. And a channel attention mechanism dynamically enhances discriminative bands, focusing on key spectral information. Residual connection optimization gradient propagation is adopted to avoid gradient explosion and gradient vanishing, thereby reducing error accumulation and improving training efficiency. Experiments were conducted on the UWA Writing Ink Hyperspectral Image (WIHSI) dataset to determine the optimal training data partitioning and parameter settings. Ablation studies were designed to validate the effectiveness of the multi-branch parallel convolution structure, channel attention mechanism, and residual connections in improving model performance. Finally, the performance of the model proposed in this paper was compared with that of other model architectures on the current dataset. The experimental results show that the multi-branch structure and the channel attention mechanism improved the accuracy rates by 4.6% and 1.0% respectively, and the training cycle was shortened by 34% through the residual network connection. For the most challenging identification of the black ink, HI-CNN achieved an accuracy rate of 98.07% (an improvement of 5.3% compared to the optimal model CAE-LR). In comparison, for the identification of blue ink the accuracy rate reached 99.06%, which was generally superior to the existing methods. This study provided an accurate and efficient solution for identifying homochromy inks, thereby reducing reliance on professional expertise in forensic document examination. It had significant application value in the field of judicial expertise and promoted the leapfrog development of homochromy ink identification technology, transitioning from reliance on experience to scientific quantification.
