Researchers in [[handwriting recognition]], [[Questioned document examination|forensic handwriting examination]], [[kinesiology]], [[psychology]], [[computer science]], [[artificial intelligence]], [[paleography]] and [[neuroscience]] cooperate in order to achieve a better understanding of the human [[skill]] of handwriting.  Research in graphonomics generally involves [[handwriting movement analysis]]<ref>{{citation
