TLDR
This paper attempts to eliminate the assumption that the written text is fixed by presenting a novel algorithm for automatic text-independent writer identification by taking a global approach based on texture analysis, where each writer's handwriting is regarded as a different texture.

A Set of Handwriting Features for Use in Automated Writer Identification

TL;DR: The graph‐based system described in this article has been implemented in a highly accurate and approximately language‐independent biometric recognition system of writers of cursive documents.

Quantitative characterization of morphological polymorphism of handwritten characters loops.

TL;DR: The correct classification rates reached in this study suggest that carrying out an expertise of fragmentary samples of handwriting comprising only some loops is completely possible, and differences between writers belonging to distinct groups were revealed.

New mathematical and algorithmic schemes for pattern classification with application to the identification of writers of important ancient documents

TL;DR: A novel approach is introduced for classifying curves into proper families, according to their similarity, and the methodology has been applied to the very important problem of classifying 23 Byzantine codices and 46 Ancient inscriptions to their writers, thus achieving correct dating of their content.

Writer Identification using Deep Learning with FAST Keypoints and Harris corner detector

TL;DR: A writer identification system that relies on extraction of key points from handwriting and feeding small patches around these key points to a convolutional neural network for feature learning and classification is presented.

Writer identification in handwritten musical scores with bags of notes

TL;DR: This work adapts the Bag of Visual Words framework to the task of writer identification in handwritten musical scores and analyzes the effect of two improvements of the representation: a Bhattacharyya embedding, which improves the results at virtually no extra cost, and a Fisher Vector representation that very significantly improves the Results at the cost of a more complex and costly representation.

Text segmentation using Gabor filters for automatic document processing

TL;DR: In this paper, two-dimensional Gabor filters are used to extract texture features for each text region in a given document image, and the text in the document is considered as a textured region.
