An Approach for Devising Stenography Application Using Cross Modal Attention

This paper focuses on providing a solution to the direct conversion of speech to shorthand. Since shorthand is not understood by many but is used for writing quick transcripts, a product is developed that converts the speech to its appropriate Gregg shorthand. A website that will be used as a front end, will use a speech-to-text API to record the speech in real-time. The converted text will then be fed into a text-to-image retrieval model that derives its corresponding Gregg shorthand for the text. The text will then be displayed to the user in real-time. By achieving this, the model reduces the need to depend upon stenographers for transcribing scripts. The resulting model achieves a good result.

Handwritten Gregg Shorthand Recognition

Gregg shorthand is a form of stenography that was invented by John Robert Gregg in 1888. Like cursive longhand, it is completely based on elliptical figures and lines that bisect them. Gregg shorthand is the most popular form of pen stenography in the United States and its Spanish adaptation is fairly popular in Latin America. With the invention of dictation machines, shorthand machines, and the practice of executives writing their own letters on their personal computers, the use of shorthand has gradually declined in the business and reporting world. However, Gregg shorthand is still in use today. The need to process documents on paper by computer has led to an area of research that may be referred to as Document Image Understanding (DIU).The goal of DIU system is to convert a raster image representation of a document. For Example, A hand written Gregg shorthand character or word is converted into an appropriate Symbolic Character in a computer (It may be a scanned character or online written character).Thus it involves many disciplines of computer science including image processing, pattern recognition, natural language processing, artificial intelligence, neural networks and database system. The ultimate goal of this paper is to recognize hand written Gregg shorthand character and Gregg shorthand word.

Medical Secretary's Manual

From her practical experience as a physician's secretary and as a teacher of medical shorthand, the author has prepared a manual for medical secretaries and assistants. The material presented is clinically oriented, each section devoted to a particular system or organ of the body. Before confronting the reader with definitions and shorthand symbols for each specific term or phrase, Miss Eshom provides a simplified description of the system under discussion and frequently includes helpful schematic drawings. This background information distinguishes her book from the usual text of medical shorthand. The practice material was taken from actual office and hospital records, and the author has suggested a practice routine which should assist in committing to memory these new shorthand symbols (based upon conventional Gregg shorthand). An extensive index has also been supplied for speedy reference. Although for maximal retention classroom instruction and supervision would probably be required, Miss Eshom's book should

The author of this volume has been secretary to a physician, who is at the same time a competent writer. With remarkable optimism she has compiled some hints to medical stenographers with the hope that they will learn them. She provides definitions, numerous word signs, prefixes and suffixes. Any stenographer who writes Gregg shorthand and who wishes to improve herself with a view to obtaining a high position in this field will be greatly helped by Miss Smither's contribution.
