Predicting gender on the foundation of handwriting investigation is a very invoking research area. Handwriting analysis also has numerous applications. It is useful for forensic experts to investigate classes of writers. This prediction is executed fundamentally by two steps: feature extraction and classification. As a whole, prediction solely depends upon the feature extraction. Distinct and most varied features make the classification accurate. This paper describes the problem comprehensively along with its foundation. It presents a survey of the available methods to solve the discussed problem. A comparative analysis of the discussed methods of feature extraction and classification along with the available databases is also presented in this paper.
