A Computerized Communication Message Preparation Program that "Learns" the User's Vocabulary.
Scull, John; Hill, Linda
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), v4 n1 p40-44 Mar 1988
"Cued Typing" is a computerized communication message preparation program, written for Apple II Plus, using frequency-based prediction algorithms and menu selection to reduce word cost while maintaining vocabulary flexibility. "Cued Typing" was more efficient than letter-by-letter typing, but word cost was still quite high, and communication speed did not improve. (Author/JDD)
