Keen on working for tasks related to Language Models and Information Extraction for IndicNLP

[Sinchani Chakraborty]

Hi,

I am Sinchani. I have the experience of training language models, implementing deep learning modules for Text Classification. 

I am keen on contributing to this project. In the Github link , I found two tasks: 1.) Build a UlmFit model, 2.) Get translation data respectively that were unchecked. I can explore the first task i.e,Build a UlmFit model. Also, it will be really great if you could share other prior tasks that are to be done.

Thanks & Regards,

Hey Sinchani,

Thank you for reaching out!

The UlmFit model task is still pending. Feel free to give it a shot!

Current tasks:

1) Right now I am exploring ways to perform stemming and lemmatization for Bengali. Prof Sudeshna from IITK has done some work on it.

2) I have received access to TTS and STT data for Bengali. Will start work on that soon.

3) There are other scripts/dialects in Bengali and I was searching for datasets for the same.

It would be great if you could contribute to this! Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions
