  • Abstract
    This paper investigates the potential of Pitman shorthand as a mean of fast real-time handwritten text entry (>120 wpm) on hand-held devices. An online system which combines input, recognition and transcription of Pitman shorthand is proposed. The main recognition algorithms taken in the demonstration system are discussed and evaluated. Based on the implementation experience of the system, future research directions are discussed.
