Sharing a few SMT resources for Indian languages.
Center For Indian Language Technology <http://www.cfilt.iitb.ac.in>, IIT
Bombay has hosted Shata-Anuvaadak (100 Translators), a Statisitical Machine
Translation system for Indian languages. It currently supports translation
between 11 Indian languages:
- Indo-Aryan languages: Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi,
Marathi, Konkani
- Dravidian languages: Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam
- English
It is a Phrase-Based MT system with pre-processing and post-processing
extensions. The pre-processing includes source-side reordering for English
to Indian language translation. The post-processing includes
transliteration between Indian languages for OOV words. The system can be
accessed at:
