Handwritten biometric recognition

Not to be confused with Optical character recognition.
Example of handwriting of a sequence of digits on a drawing tablet, and the corresponding dynamical data. Movements in the air are also acquired by the tablet, letting it track the movement between writing one digit and the next. These can be identified in the data because pressure (shown in the last line graph) is zero when in the air.

Handwritten biometric recognition is the process of identifying the author of a given text from the handwriting style. Handwritten biometric recognition belongs to the category of behavioural biometric methods because it is based on what the individual has learned to do, as opposed to being a physiological biometric such as a fingerprint.
