IGS2017 is the 18th Biennial Conference of the International
Graphonomics Society and will take place in Gaeta, along the central
western coast of Italy, 18-21 June 2017.

The Conference theme is “Graphonomics for e-citizens: e-health,
e-society, e-education” and will be a single track international forum for
discussion on recent advances in the fields of science and technology of
handwriting and other graphic skills, and their impact on the daily life
within the e-society.

TOPICS of interest (but not limited to) are:
-- Neuroscience: Development, planning and control of writing and drawing
movement;
-- Handwriting generation: Biomechanical models; Cognitive models;
Neural network based models;
-- Handwriting analysis: Recording; Tracking; Processing; Tools;
-- Handwriting recognition: Human reading; Pen computing; On-line and
off-line recognition; Interface technology;
