Graphonomics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The interdisciplinary field of graphonomics is directed towards the scientific analysis of the handwriting process and the handwritten product. Researchers from handwriting recognition, forensic handwriting examination, kinesiology, psychology, computer science, artificial intelligence, paleography and neuroscience cooperate in order to achieve a better understanding of the human skill of handwriting. Graphonomics science should not be confused with the practice of graphology.
Topics in graphonomics include:
- Handwriting regeneration - the simulated production of a given recording of handwriting movement. This is realized, not using the actually recorded kinematic or kinetic signals, but an abstracted model of human movement control.
- Handwriting generation - the process of producing handwriting (e.g., pen-tip) movements. Usually the concept implies the use of a computer simulation model which is able to generate handwriting movement and/or shape, producing newly generated text in a manner which is similar to the handwriting of a particular person.
- Fluency - Measures for the fluency of handwriting are the integral of the absolute of the acceleration signal or, alternatively, the absolute of the integral of the jerk time function.
