        ### What is Gregg Shorthand?
        
        Gregg shorthand is a phonetic writing system invented by **John Robert Gregg** in 1888. 
        It was the most popular shorthand system in the English-speaking world for over a century.
        
        **Key Features:**
        - **Phonetic**: Based on sounds rather than spelling
        - **Cursive**: Written in flowing, connected strokes
        - **Efficient**: Much faster than longhand writing
        - **Geometric**: Uses circles, curves, and straight lines
        
        **Historical Uses:**
        - Court reporting and legal documentation
        - Business correspondence and meeting minutes
        - Journalism and news reporting
        - Personal note-taking and diary writing
        - Administrative and government records
        
        **Why Digitize?**
        - Preserve historical documents
        - Make archives searchable
        - Support stenography education
        - Research historical communications
        """)
    
    with gr.Accordion("🎯 How to Get Best Results", open=False):
        gr.Markdown("""
        ### Image Guidelines:
        
        **✅ Best Practices:**
        - Use **high-resolution** images (300+ DPI)
        - Ensure **good contrast** between ink and paper
        - Crop images to focus on **shorthand text only**
        - Keep text **right-side up** and **straight**
        - Use **well-lit** photos without shadows
        
        **📱 Phone Camera Tips:**
        - Hold steady and focus clearly
        - Use good lighting (natural light works best)
        - Avoid glare and reflections
        - Fill the frame with the shorthand text
        - Take multiple shots if needed
        
        **📄 Document Scanning:**
        - Scan at 300 DPI or higher
        - Use grayscale or color mode
        - Ensure flat documents without curves
        - Clean dust and marks if possible
        
        **⚙️ Confidence Threshold:**
        - **Low (0.3-0.5)**: Shows more results, including uncertain ones
        - **Medium (0.5-0.7)**: Balanced accuracy and coverage
        - **High (0.7-1.0)**: Only high-confidence results

        ### Model Architecture:
        
        This recognition system uses:
        - **Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)** for visual feature extraction
        - **Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)** networks for sequence modeling
        - **Advanced pattern recognition** algorithms
        - **Custom preprocessing** optimized for shorthand notation
        
        ### Model Specifications:
        - **Input Size**: 256×256 pixels
        - **Framework**: PyTorch
        - **Training Data**: Specialized Gregg shorthand dataset
        - **Preprocessing**: Grayscale conversion, normalization, noise reduction
        
        ### Performance Notes:
        - Optimized specifically for Gregg shorthand notation
        - Performance varies with image quality and clarity
        - Best results with clear, high-contrast historical documents
        - Continuous improvements through user feedback
        
        ### Integration Options:
        
        **Python Package:**
        ```bash
        pip install gregg-recognition
        ```
        
        **Hugging Face Transformers:**
        ```python
        from transformers import pipeline
        pipe = pipeline("image-to-text", model="a0a7/gregg-recognition")
        ```
