Sequential Authentication Using Handwriting Biometrics for Free Response e-Testing

Abstract

To prevent proxy-test taking among examinees in unsynchronized e-Testing, a previous work proposed an online handwriting authentication. That method was limited to applied for end of each answer. For free response tests that needed to authenticate throughout the answer, we used the Bayesian prior information to examine a sequential handwriting authentication procedure. The evaluation results indicate that the accuracy of this procedure is higher than the previous method in examinees authentication during mathematics exam with referring the Chinese character.
