Abstract

Abstract—Understanding individual motor signatures (IMS) is essential for personalized treatment and performance optimization. This study investigates the effectiveness of Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering for identifying individual motor signatures from graphomotor tasks. We analyze various kinematic and geometric features, such as movement duration, velocity, and trajectory length, to reveal which aspects of motor behavior are most effective in distinguishing individuals. The results show that features like length of movement are particularly discriminative, while others, such as beta and velocity, offer weaker clustering outcomes.
