A novel solution to on-line Pitman shorthand recognition for high speed text input (> 120wpn) to computer and mobile devices such as PDA's is proposed in this paper. Approaches to the recognition of three major components of Pitman shorthand-shortforms consonant outlines, vowel and diphthong symbols and are described in detail. Evaluation shows that the proposed approach achieved 84.4% recognition accuracy.
