Original Abstract

Advantageous property of behavioural signals (e.g. handwriting), in contrast to morphological ones (e.g. iris, fingerprint, hand geometry), is the possibility to ask a user to perform many different tasks. This article summarises recent findings and applications of different handwriting/drawing tasks in the field of security and health. More specifically, it is focused on on-line handwriting and hand-based interaction, i.e. signals that utilise a digitizing device (specific devoted or general-purpose tablet/smartphone) during the realization of the tasks. Such devices permit the acquisition of on-surface dynamics as well as in-air movements in time, thus providing complex and richer information when compared to the conventional “pen and paper” method. Although the scientific literature reports a wide range of tasks and applications, in this paper, we summarize only those providing competitive results (e.g. in terms of discrimination power) and having a significant impact in the field.
