Writer Identification and Verification: A Review

چکیده
Writer identification and verification has been studied over the past decade due to the high demand of such implementations in a wide variety of offline handwritten data applications. Among the applications are verification of the identity of a person whom he or she claimed to be and forensic and historic document analysis in identifying the identity of the writer of the documents. This paper provides a review on the state-of-art of writer identification and verification techniques which have been used and implemented. There are three main stages involved in writer identification and verification: feature extraction phase, classification phase and verification phase. In each phase, commonly used techniques and algorithms would be

متن کاملHandwritten Document Analysis for Automatic Writer Recognition
In this paper, we show that both the writer identification and the writer verification tasks can be carried out using local features such as graphemes extracted from the segmentation of cursive handwriting. We thus enlarge the scope of the possible use of these two tasks which have been, up to now, mainly evaluated on script handwritings. A textual based Information Retrieval model is used for ...
متن کاملGrapheme Based Writer Verification
In this communication we propose an approach for the writer verification task. The difficulty of this task lies first, in the decision making between the two assumptions which model the problem: "Do the two writings come from the same writer ?" or "Do the two writings come from different writers?" and second, in the evaluation of the error risk associated to this decision. We have called upon a...
متن کاملCombining Multiple Features for Text-Independent Writer Identification and Verification
In recent years, we proposed a number of new and very effective features for automatic writer identification and verification. They are probability distribution functions (PDFs) extracted from the handwriting images and characterize writer individuality independently of the textual content of the written samples. In this paper, we perform an extensive analysis of feature combinations. In our fu...
