Disclosed herein is a method, computer system and computer program product for identifying a writing system associated with a document image containing one or more words written in the writing system. Initially, a document image fragment is identified based on the document image, wherein the document image fragment contains one or more pixels from one or more of the words in the document image. A set of sequential features associated with the document image fragment is generated, wherein each sequential feature describes one dimensional graphic information derived from the one or more pixels in the document image fragment. A classification score for the document image fragment is generated responsive at least in part to the set of sequential features, the classification score indicating a likelihood that the document image fragment is written in the writing system. The writing system associated with the document image is identified based at least in part on the classification score for the document image fragment.
