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.

Offline Text-Independent Writer Identification Using Different Levels of Features

TL;DR: This paper combines two different levels of features: local directional chain-code feature (LDCF) and global improved texture feature (GITF) that are applied to different matching processes in handwriting identification.

Biometrics Writer Recognition for Arabic language: Analysis and Classification techniques using Subwords Features

TL;DR: A new innovative approach based on a seemingly plausible hypothesis that subwords based WI yields significant increase in accuracy over existing approaches is proposed, demonstrating that including diacritics within subwords impairs the WI.

Assessing Textural Features for Writer Identification on Different Writing Styles and Forgeries

TL;DR: The experimental results corroborates the fact that the texture is an interesting alternative for writer identification and shows that the SVM classifier trained with LPQ was able to produce error rates 23 percentage points smaller than those reported in the literature for upper-case and free writing styles.

Text-independent writer recognition using modified texture and microstructure features

TL;DR: This paper proposes effective techniques for automatic writer recognition that operate at different analysis levels, and presents a novel 2-D wavelet-based method to replace the traditional 1-D Gabor filter.

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.
