Abstract

Past few years, a lot of research on moment functions have been explored in pattern recognition. Several new techniques have been investigated to improve conventional regular moment by proposing the scaling factor of geometrical function. In this paper, integrated scaling formulations of Aspect Invariant Moment and Higher Order Scaling Invariant with United Moment Invariant are presented in Writer Identification to seek the invarianceness of authorship or individuality of handwriting perseverance. Mathematical proving and results of computer simulations are included to verify the validity of the proposed technique in identifying eccentricity of the author in Writer Identification.
