+ <p>
+ Qtaish et al presented this layout in
+ <a href="http://www.sci-int.com/pdf/637456047563529791.pdf">An Improved Arabic Keyboard Layout</a> in 2021.
+ <!-- -->
+ They use a novel corpus of 5 million words or roughly 66 million letters
+ <!-- 65713689 adding up the numbers in their paper --> consisting of
+ newspapers, (now defunct) social networks and blogs, as well as six
+ dictionaries (see remarks).
+ <!-- -->
+ Then letters were classified into three categories based on their
+ frequency, which apparently were used to populate home, top and bottom
+ row (in this order).
+ <!-- -->
+ Additionally bigrams were somehow used to arrange letters and avoid
+ placing them on the same or adjacent fingers, making rolling finger
+ movements incentiviced by carpalx impossible.
+ <!-- -->
+ Ultimately it looks like the layout was designed by hand and not through
+ an automated process. <!-- see section 5 of the paper -->
+ </p>
+
+ <details class="remarks">
+ <summary></summary>
+ <em>Alfarahindi</em> and <em>Alein Dictionary</em> are most likely the same 8th century book <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitab_al-%27Ayn">Kitab al-'Ayn</a>.

+ <p>
+ Although the authors do not provide a number row, it has been added for
+ fair comparison.

+ However to be actually usable the layout would need punctuation symbols and diacritics.
