New NLP task targets Sanskrit glossary generation with benchmark

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced "grounded glossary generation," a new NLP task focused on extracting Sanskrit phrases and their meanings from sloka-translation pairs. They developed a benchmark dataset of over 31,000 triples from the Ramayana and Bhagavata Purana, along with evaluation metrics for phrase recovery and semantic consistency. Experiments with various models, including Gemma and Qwen, showed that instruction fine-tuning significantly improved performance, though morphological challenges related to Sanskrit compounds remain a bottleneck.
