We present an experimental validation of a model of handwriting style that builds upon a neuro-computational model of motor learning and execution. We hypothesize that handwriting style emerges from the concatenation of highly automated writing movements, called invariants, that have been learned by the subject in correspondence to the most frequent sequence of characters the subject is familiar with. We also assume that the actual shape of the ink trace contains enough information to characterize the handwriting style. The experimental results on a data set containing genuine, disguised, and forged (both skilled and naive) documents show that the model is an effective tool for modeling intra-writer and inter-writers variability and provides quantitative estimation of the difference between handwriting styles that is in accordance with the difference in the visual appearance of the handwriting.
