Shorthand Handwriting Recognition for Pen-Centric Interfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
The development of shorthand handwriting recognition for pen-centric interfaces can provide the critical infrastructure for natural pen-centric interactions to enhance many pen-centric learning applications. The technical innovations include chatroom and special-symbol shorthand as well as appropriate online handwriting recognition strategies for small form-factor devices. Famous writers throughout history have preferred and effectively used shorthand – Cicero’s orations, Martin Luther’s sermons, and Shakespeare’s and George Bernard Shaw’s plays were all written in a style of shorthand. Pen-centric shorthand innovations will provide faster text input for teaching, studying, and learning applications, providing the greatest impact on the utility of applications running on small mobile devices.

6. English Language Handwriting Recognition Interfaces
Handwriting had been an excellent means to communication and documentation for thousands of years, and this chapter deals with handwriting recognition as a method of entering text into a computer. Handwriting is a learned skill, but because it has a long history and is learned in early school years, many consider it more natural than the alternative learned skill of text entry by either standar...

While keyboard input typically is faster than handwriting input, this is not true for small PDA interfaces. This paper describes an efficient system for entering data into pen-enabled devices. The prototype uses single-stroke chatroom abbreviations and shorthand symbols to increase the speed of data entry. We created a library of chatroom abbreviations and shorthand symbols, and developed a k-n...
