Researchers have developed a novel morphology-aware system for Tamil language models, enhancing translation capabilities. This system integrates the ThamizhiMorph analyzer and generator with a byte-exact semantic tokenizer and a learned hierarchical word composer. The approach analyzes words into lemmas and grammatical features, preserving exact reconstruction through character and byte fallbacks. Evaluations show that this morphology-based tokenization improves translation quality and significantly reduces sequence length and estimated inference costs compared to existing baselines like AI4Bharat IndicBERTv2.
