This program is based on the seminar 1997 research paper by J.R. McKinley and R. Burnstein which describes a method for using digitized signatures to drive a powerful analysis engine. The McKinley-Burnstein Handwriting Analyzer (MBHA) offers professional quality handwriting analysis on your Palm, including features normally only found on high end PC based programs; such as slant normalization, descender compression, and spacing reduction.
