English to Hindi Transliteration

English to Hindi Transliteration — Create your own google Hindi input tool

1. Introduction:

a. Motivation:

Nowadays everyone wants to communicate, work in their native language. Specially in India, majority talks, understand Hindi language.

b. Definition:

Transliteration is the process of transferring a word from the alphabet of one language to another. Transliteration helps people pronounce words and names in foreign languages”. Unlike a translation, which tells you the meaning of a word that’s written in another language, a transliteration only gives you an idea of how the word is pronounced, by putting it in a familiar alphabet. It changes the letters from the word’s original alphabet to similar-sounding letters in a different one.

We can think of Transliteration as sequence to sequence modeling problem. Sequence-to-sequence and long-short term modelling. (Seq2Seq) is about training models to convert sequences from one domain (e.g. words in English) to sequences in another domain (e.g. the same words transliterated to Hindi

Applications of Transliteration:

-Used in Translation
-Helpful in Typing
-Information Retrieval in Code Mix language

Future Enhancement:

Since model has not learn many phonetics encoding due to low amount of data model architecture, we can modify our current neural network architecture with encoder decoder layer and attention layer. We can also collect more data to enhance CER and bleu score.
