Analysing the Psychological Condition of Pilots Through Computer Aided Graphology

Graphology is the science of reading and analysing handwriting to detect the personality traits of a person. We have incorporated the concept of graphology with the use of computer systems, making the process of analysis faster, more reliable and cost efficient. This paper focuses on the use of computer aided graphology in the field of aviation where the pilots are checked before the flight to determine whether they are psychologically/mentally fit to fly the plane. There have been various cases in the past where the pilots had crashed the plane due to depression, stress, tension, fatigue, lack of sleep or intoxication. All of these can be majorly detected by graphological analysis as shown in this paper to prevent any such casualties.
