Abstract:

The efficiency of two different instructional methods for improving the growth of handwriting quality in the upper grades of primary school was investigated in field experiments using a control-group design. No improvement in mean quality was found for a group of 38 children using a method based on copying exercises. A substantial improvement in mean quality, corresponding to about 1.4 SD, was found for 23 children using a method based on reintroduction of the letter forms explaining each form visually and verbally. It was concluded that the bottleneck in the development of handwriting quality in primary school is a mismatch between the instructional methods used and the perceptual ability of the children.

Abstract:

The current study evaluated the developmental characteristics of printed and cursive letter writing in early school-age children. We predicted fewer age-related changes on spatial and temporal measures in cursive letter writing due to lower explicit timing demands compared with printed letter writing. Thirty children wrote the letters e and l in cursive and printed forms repetitively. For printed letters, significant age effects were seen in temporal consistency, whereas cursive letters showed age-related improvement in spatial consistency. Children tended to have higher consistency for printed handwriting than they did for cursive writing. Because of an overall advantage for printed handwriting, the explicit timing hypothesis was not fully supported. We argue that experiential factors influence the development of handwriting.

Abstract:

Non-Chinese speakers hold increasing opportunities and need to process Chinese information and communicate in Chinese. This paper, with the purpose of facilitating the handwriting input of Chinese characters for non-Chinese speakers, is directed towards the development of the handwriting rules and vocabulary for Latin-style anti-cursive characters and the ways of their selection and classification. This aims to build a practical platform by utilizing three characteristics of wavelet neural network — automatically ascertaining the number of hidden layer unit, converging rapidly and never running into the partial minimum of networks — for a simple Latin-style online handwriting input and processing, meanwhile, taking the customary handwriting habits of non-Chinese speakers. The paper, based on profound information of cursive characters, deciphered the genetic code of ancient cursive symbols and made clear the rules for characters changing into its cursive style. As a result, it breaks the bottleneck, which enables non-Chinese speakers to easily input information through handwriting Chinese characters.

Abstract:

Offline cursive handwriting becomes a major challenge due to the huge amount of handwriting varieties such as slant handwriting, space between words, the size and direction of the letter, the style of writing the letter and handwriting with contour similarity on some letters. There are some steps for recursive handwriting recognition. The steps are preprocessing, morphology, segmentation, features of letter extraction and recognition. Segmentation is a crucial process in handwriting recognition since the success of segmentation step will determine the success level of recognition. This paper proposes a segmentation algorithm that segment recursive handwriting into letters. These letters will form words using a method that determine the intersection cutting point of image recursive handwriting with an ideal image distance. The ideal distance of recursive handwriting image is an ideal distance segmentation point in order to avoid the cutting of other letter’s section. The width and height of images are used to determine the accurate segmentation point. There were 999 recursive handwriting input images taken from 25 researchers used for this study. The images used are the images obtained from preprocessing step. Those are the images with slope correction. This study used Support Vector Machine (SVM) to recognize recursive handwriting. The experiments show the proposed segmentation algorithm able to segment the image precisely and have 97% success recognizing the recursive handwriting.

Abstract:

The efficiency of four different cursive handwriting styles as model alphabets for handwriting instruction of primary school children was compared in a cross-sectional field experiment from Grade 3 to 6 in terms of the average handwriting speed developed by the children and the average rate of convergence of the children's handwriting to the style of their model. It was concluded that styles with regular entry stroke patterns give the steadiest rate of convergence to the model and styles with short ascenders and descenders and strokes with not too high curvatures give the highest handwriting speed.

Abstract:

In the research area of writing development, an increasing number of researchers suggest that graphomotor skills could be much more important than they appear to be (Christensen, 2009). Few researchers have studied the link between handwriting and teaching practices, despite the fact that some studies indicate its importance (Graham, 2010). The general objective of this study is to explore the relationship between different handwriting styles and the development of writing skills among 715 children in Grade 2. Generally, our results show that the three handwriting styles (manuscript/cursive, manuscript, and cursive) have different effects on writing development (speed, quality, word production, and text production).

Abstract:

So far there have been models for generating handwriting scripts of western languages. Since the basic structure of oriental languages such as Chinese, Japanese and Korean, is quite different from that of alphabet-based western languages, western handwriting models cannot be applied directly to oriental languages except for a few models. In this paper, we propose a new generation model for generating Korean handwriting scripts. For this we choose 11 characteristic parameters which determine the shape of handwriting scripts. These parameters were selected experimentally by investigating ample Korean scripts. Furthermore we propose the Beta-velocity model to simulate the cursive stroke movement by manipulating curvilinear and cursive connection for consecutive strokes within a letter or a word. In order to generate these oriental cursive strokes, we adopted Beta distribution curve basis which enables one to make easy asymmetric velocity profile. By combining all these features, we synthesize various handwriting Korean scripts by controlling 11 characteristic parameters. In the final section of this paper, we give experimental results. These easy-to-synthesize Korean scripts can be used in evaluating off-line character recognition system and a word processor by supporting handwriting-style fonts.

Abstract:

Handwriting and spelling problems are often associated in dyslexia. However, the nature of their association is still unclear, and most of the existing research in this area is on deep orthographies (mainly English). The extent to which findings are applicable across languages is uncertain. This article examines the effects of script (manuscript/cursive) and orthographic complexity (complex/simple spellings) on the word dictation and word-copying performance of a group of 24 Italian children with dyslexia and handwriting difficulties (DH group, aged 8–10). Their performance was compared with that of a chronologically age–matched group (CA) and a group of younger children matched to the DH group for their handwriting skills (HA: handwriting age group). Children performed two classical handwriting tasks: the alphabet task and a sentence-copy task, and dictation and copy tasks of orthographically complex words and orthographically simple words. Copying was performed in manuscript and cursive. The results show that although the DH group shows a significant deficit in graphomotor processes, orthographic complexity more than the visual-motor characteristics of the task (i.e., script) affects their performance in handwriting. An advantage for cursive script in DH children, but not in the other two groups, emerges from the study.

Abstract:

On Writing and Handwriting Writing is often considered secondary to the spoken language, as it is only coded sound-by-sound. But other scholars have demonstrated that writing is similar to ‘arithmetic’: a cognitive structuring, a shift to the meta-level (‘for the eye’). Handwriting (referred to here as the cursive writing in the sense of joined up handwriting, of ‘écriture liée’) differs from writing (in the first analysis): it has its own grammar composed of paradigmatic gestemes and tracemes and its own syntagmatic rules that connect them. In emotional terms, handwriting is designed to provide a special pleasure by its own drive (instinct, ‘Trieb’). But there is also cognitive aspect to it: the rapidity and fluidity of a cursive writing could be (in professional writing, for instance) more important (at the climax of the creative process) than it being legible for all eternity. The project of the new handwriting reform for Czech schools, abolishing the liaison between letters, is shown to be a modern and technically simplified form of calligraphy.

Abstract:

The ability to infer the sex of the writer from cursive handwriting was examined under a range of conditions. In 5 experiments male and female college students were able to perform this task at the 75% accuracy level even with small amounts of material, sometimes only a single letter or a single geometric pattern. On the other hand, age of the writer was just barely discernible from handwriting. It was suggested that sex or gender is present in handwriting in much the same way as it is present in movement of the whole body.

Abstract:

We propose a model for the segmentation of cursive handwriting into strokes that has been derived in analogy with those proposed in the literature for early processing tasks in primate visual system. The model allows reformulating the problem of selecting on the ink the points corresponding to perceptually relevant changes of curvature as a preattentive, purely bottom-up visual task, where the conspicuity of curvature changes is measured in terms of their saliency. The modeling of the segmentation as a saliency-driven visual task has lead to a segmentation algorithm whose architecture is biologically-plausible and that does not rely on any parameter other than those that can be directly obtained from the ink. Experimental results show that the performance is very stable and predictable, thus preventing those erratic behaviors of segmentation methods often reported in the literature. They also suggest that the proposed measure of saliency has a direct relation with the dynamics of the handwriting, so as it could be used to capture in a quantitative way some aspects of cursive handwriting intuitively related to the notion of style.

Abstract:

In the framework of online cursive handwriting recognition, we present an efficient method for reordering the sequence of strokes composing handwriting in two special cases of interest: the horizontal bar of the character "" and the dot of the character "". The proposed method exploits shape information for selecting the strokes that most likely correspond to the features of interest, and layout and topological information for locating the strokes representing the body of the characters to which the features belong to. The method does not depend on the specific algorithm used for detecting the elementary strokes in which the electronic ink may be decomposed into. The performance of our method, evaluated on a data set of cursive words produced by 50 different writers, has shown a correct reordering of the sequence in more than 85% of the cases. Thus, the proposed method allows obtaining a more stable and invariant description of the electronic ink in terms of elementary stroke sequences, and therefore can be helpfully used as a preprocessing step for both segmentation-based and word-based handwriting recognition systems.

The author attempts to demonstrate, on the basis of the hieratic forms of pȝ in the Late Ramesside Letters, that it is possible to distinguish the handwriting of various scribes. Although many similar forms occur, particularly very cursive ones, there appears to be a statistical difference between the forms used by Dhutmose, Butehamun, and the scribe of the General Kenkhnum. When extended to other groups of signs and other manuscripts, the method described may help to date otherwise undatable texts.

Abstract:

Handwriting abilities have been shown to play an important role in the academic performance of children, especially children who have disorders of written language. Dysgraphia is the most commonly identified neurodevelopmental grapho-motor disorder of handwriting and it often co-occurs with dyslexia. Even in an age where much print is accomplished by keyboarding, legible handwriting continues to be an indispensable skill for a range of academic, vocational, social, and professional activities. In keeping with research that supports the importance of cursive writing, this paper focuses on guidelines for speech-language pathologists (SLPs) who evaluate, diagnose, and treat children with disorders of written language accompanied by marked deficits in handwriting.

Abstract.FLUENCY AND ACCURACY IN COPYING TASKS (MANUSCRIPT VS. CURSIVE): A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDYHandwriting evolves with the pass of time. The type of script which children begin to learn depends on curriculum in their countries and the educational policy. There are two main types of script: manuscript and cursive. There is a controversial issue about which type of script would be best to use to begin the teaching of handwriting, but has not been a consensus yet. This research analyzes manuscript and cursive script modalities. Our objective was to determine whether there are differences in accuracy and fluency when students are copying the alphabet letters using different types of script (manuscript vs. cursive), and also whether these differences are mediated by the grade (1st, 2nd and 3rd ). A subtest from the test called Early Grade Writing Assessment (EGWA) (Jiménez, 2012) was administered to a sample of children from 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade.Keywords: writing, fluency, accuracy, manuscript letter, cursive letter, cross-sectional study.Resumen.La escritura evoluciona con el paso del tiempo.

Abstract:

A group of 153 high school students participated in a cursive handwriting task which required them to copy sentences as quickly as possible. The 78 girls performed significantly better than the 75 boys and a substantial range of speed for each sex was found. The results have implications for more demanding writing and composition processes. Handwriting speed has the potential to act as a limiting factor under some circumstances.

Abstract:

A perturbation model for the generation of synthetic textlines from existing cursively handwritten lines of text produced by human writers is presented. The goal of synthetic textline generation is to improve the performance of an offline cursive handwriting recognition system by providing it with additional training data. It can be expected that by adding synthetic training data the variability of the training set improves, which leads to a higher recognition rate. On the other hand, synthetic training data may bias a recognizer towards unnatural handwriting styles, which could lead to a deterioration of the recognition rate. In this paper the proposed perturbation model is evaluated under several experimental conditions, and it is shown that significant improvement of the recognition performance is possible even when the original training set is large and the textlines are provided by a large number of different writers.

Abstract:

Writer identification based on cursive words is one of the extensive behavioural biometric that has involved many researchers to work in. Recently, its main idea is in forensic investigation and biometric analysis as such the handwriting style can be used as individual behavioural adaptation for authenticating an author. In this study, a novel approach of presenting cursive features of authors is presented. The invariants-based discriminability of the features is proposed by discretizing the moment features of each writer using biometric invariant discretization cutting point (BIDCP). BIDCP is introduced for features perseverance to obtain better individual representations and discriminations. Our experiments have revealed that by using the proposed method, the authorship identification based on cursive words is significantly increased with an average identification rate of 99.80%.

Abstract:

One of the biometric methods in authentication systems is the writer verification/identification using password handwriting. The main objective of this paper is to present a robust writer verification system by using cursive texts as well as block letter words. To evaluate the system, two datasets have been used. One of them is called Secure Password DB 150, which is composed of 150 users with 18 samples of single character words per user. Another dataset is public and called IAM online handwriting database, and it is composed of 220 users of cursive text samples. Each sample has been defined by a set of features, composed of 67 geometrical, statistical, and temporal features. In order to get more discriminative information, two feature reduction methods have been applied, Fisher Score and Info Gain Attribute Evaluation. Finally, the classification system has been implemented by hold-out cross validation and k-folds cross validation strategies for three different classifiers, K-NN, Naïve Bayes and Bayes Net classifiers. Besides, it has been applied for verification and identification approaches. The best results of 95.38% correct classification are achieved by using the k-nearest neighbor classifier for single character DB. A feature reduction by Info Gain Attribute Evaluation improves the results for Naïve Bayes Classifier to 98.34% for IAM online handwriting DB. It is concluded that the set of features and its reduction are a strong selection for the based-password handwritten writer identification in comparison with the state-of-the-art.

Abstract:

Good handwriting serves as a primary tool of communication and knowledge assessment for students in classroom. Though computer and e- mail play an important role in our lives, nothing will ever replace the sincerity and individualism expressed through handwritten words. Our education system stress on student’s handwriting at primary level by introducing books like cursive writing, ruled notes and handwritten works. But as they upgrade, impact on handwriting slowly vanishes among students mainly at secondary level where they are stressed and deviated towards rote learning as a medium to fetch marks. But at this point we forget that only an aesthetic handwriting is a vehicle to impress and deliver our thoughts in the mind of evaluator, particularly when the evaluator is a stranger in case of public exams. This article is an attempt to find out the perception on handwriting among ninth standard school students and its influence on their academic achievement. This study has revealed that there is an impact of handwriting on academic achievement. Thereby it is stressed that handwriting should be given equal importance while teachers prepare their students for academic achievement.
