Abstract

A taxonomy of local, regional, and global temporal clues that, along with a detailed examination of the document, allow temporal properties to be recovered from the image is provided. It is shown that this system will benefit from obtaining a comprehensive understanding of the handwriting signal and that it requires a detailed analysis of stroke and sub-stroke properties. It is suggested that this task requires breaking away from traditional thresholding and thinning techniques, and a framework for such analysis is presented. It is shown how the temporal clues can reliably be extracted from this framework and how many of the seemingly ambiguous situations can be resolved by the derived clues and knowledge of the writing process.
