Abstract

Handwriting is individualistic. The uniqueness of shape and style of handwriting can be used to identify the significant features in authenticating the author of writing. Acquiring these significant features leads to an important research in Writer Identification domain where to find the unique features of individual which also known as Individuality of Handwriting. It relates to invarianceness of authorship where invarianceness between features for intra-class (same writer) is lower than inter-class (different writer). This paper discusses and reports the exploration of significant features for invarianceness of authorship from global shape features by using feature selection technique. The promising results show that the proposed method is worth to receive further exploration in identifying the handwritten authorship.
