• A set of geometrical features for writer identification 

      Hassane A.; Al-Maadeed, Somaya; Bouridane A. ( Springer , 2012 , Conference Paper)
      Writer identification is an important field in the forensic document examination. We propose in this paper a set of geometrical features that makes it possible to characterize writers. They include directions, curvatures ...
    • An online signature verification system for forgery and disguise detection 

      Hassane A.; Al-Maadeed, Somaya ( Springer , 2012 , Conference Paper)
      Online signatures are acquired using a digital tablet which provides all the trajectory of the signature as well as the variation in pressure with respect to time. Therefore, online signature verification achieves higher ...
    • ICFHR2012 competition on writer identification - Challenge 2: Arabic scripts 

      Hassane A.; Al-Maadeed, Somaya ( IEEE , 2012 , Conference Paper)
      Arabic writer identification is a very active research field. However, no standard benchmark is available for researchers in this field. The aim of this competition is to gather researchers and compare recent advances in ...

      Hassane A.; Al-Maadeed, Somaya; Alja'am J.M.; Jaoua A.; Bouridane A. ( IEEE , 2011 , Conference Paper)
      Arabic writer identification is a very active research field. However, no standard benchmark is available for researchers in this field. The aim of this competition is to gather researchers and compare recent advances in ...
    • Using codebooks generated from text skeletonization for forensic writer identification 

      Al-Maadeed, Somaya; Hassane A.; Bouridan A. ( IEEE Computer Society , 2014 , Conference Paper)
      In this paper, we propose a novel approach for writer identification using codebook generation based on text skeletonization.Unlike other schemes, the skeleton in this approach is segmented at its junction pixels into ...
