ABSTRACT
A computer-based handwriting analysis system is described. It realizes the graphometric approach based on the measurement of geometric features. A user-friendly interface allows the expert to select characteristic points on the letter shape and define the parameters that have to be measured. A decision rule using the t-statistics is applied for writer identification. The experimental results have demonstrated the efficacy of the system as a tool that helps the expert to increase the objectivity of his analysis and conclusion. It could be used in forensic handwriting analysis and by police departments. knowledge.

ABC - alphabetical computer-based handwriting investigation system
CompSysTech '08: Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Computer Systems and Technologies and Workshop for PhD Students in ComputingA computer-based handwriting analysis system is described. It realizes the so called alphabetical approach aimed at the description of a large number of letters and symbols from the text under investigation in order to detect specific features and ...
Style-preserving English handwriting synthesis
This paper presents a novel and effective approach to synthesize English handwriting in the user's writing style. We select the most important features that depict the handwriting style, including character glyph, size, slant, and pressure, special ...
Automatic generation of large-scale handwriting fonts via style learning
SA '16: SIGGRAPH ASIA 2016 Technical BriefsGenerating personal handwriting fonts with large amounts of characters is a boring and time-consuming task. Take Chinese fonts as an example, the official standard GB18030-2000 for commercial font products contains 27533 simplified Chinese characters. ...
