Writer identification using texture descriptors of handwritten fragments

作者:

Highlights:

• A texture based approach for offline, text-independent, writer identification.

• Texture measures computed from small writing fragments rather than blocks of text.

• Generic, script-independent approach applied to English and Arabic handwritings.

• High identification rates on IAM and IFN/ENIT databases.
