Handwriting is an acquired tool used for communication of one's
observations or feelings. Factors that inuence a person's handwriting not
only dependent on the individual's bio-mechanical constraints, handwriting
education received, writing instrument, type of paper, background, but
also factors like stress, motivation and the purpose of the handwriting.
Despite the high variation in a person's handwriting, recent results from
different writer identification studies have shown that it possesses sufficient
individual traits to be used as an identification method.
Handwriting as a behavioral biometric has had the interest of researchers
for a long time. But recently it has been enjoying new interest due to an
increased need and effort to deal with problems ranging from white-collar
crime to terrorist threats. The identification of the writer based on a piece
of handwriting is a challenging task for pattern recognition. The main
objective of this thesis is to develop a text independent writer identification
system for Malayalam Handwriting. The study also extends to developing a
framework for online character recognition of Grantha script and Malayalam
characters |
