# Gregg Shorthand Recognition Model
This model recognizes Gregg shorthand notation from images and converts it to readable text.
## Model Description
- **Model Type**: Image-to-Text recognition
- **Architecture**: CNN-LSTM with advanced pattern recognition
- **Training Data**: Gregg shorthand samples
- **Language**: English
- **License**: MIT
## Intended Use
This model is designed to:
- Recognize Gregg shorthand from scanned documents
- Convert historical stenographic notes to digital text
- Assist in digitizing shorthand archives
- Support stenography education and research
## How to Use
### Using the Hugging Face Transformers library
```python
from transformers import pipeline
from PIL import Image
# Load the pipeline
pipe = pipeline("image-to-text", model="a0a7/gregg-recognition")
# Load an image
image = Image.open("path/to/shorthand/image.png")
# Generate text
result = pipe(image)
print(result[0]['generated_text'])
```
### Using the original package
```python
from gregg_recognition import GreggRecognition
# Initialize the recognizer
recognizer = GreggRecognition(model_type="image_to_text")
# Recognize text from image
result = recognizer.recognize("path/to/image.png")
print(result)
```
### Command Line Interface
```bash
# Install the package
pip install gregg-recognition
# Use the CLI
gregg-recognize path/to/image.png --verbose
```
## Model Performance
The model uses advanced pattern recognition techniques optimized for Gregg shorthand notation.
## Training Details
- **Framework**: PyTorch
- **Optimizer**: Adam
- **Architecture**: Custom CNN-LSTM with pattern database
- **Input Resolution**: 256x256 pixels
- **Preprocessing**: Grayscale conversion, normalization
## Limitations
- Optimized specifically for Gregg shorthand notation
- Performance may vary with image quality
- Best results with clear, high-contrast images
