Writer Identification Using Finger-Bend in Writing Signature

In sign authentication, some feature parameters such as pen position, pen pressure and pen inclination are combined to get better performance. Considering that these features are results of individual contraction of muscles with different shape of skeletons, it is meaningful to measure time sequences of finger-bends for authenticating individuals. In this paper, we show the individuality in the bend of joints of fingers in signing, and we discuss the possibility of writer authentication.
