Open-source AI models process Indian languages, masking PII and classifying text

Two open-source AI models, Chitragupta and Yama, have been developed to process Indian languages. Chitragupta is designed to detect and mask sensitive personal data such as Aadhaar, PAN, and UPI details across 13 Indian languages. Yama functions as a zero-shot classifier, enabling users to categorize text with custom labels in plain English. Both models are available under the Apache-2.0 license and can be run locally on a user's own hardware, ensuring data privacy. AI

IMPACT Provides specialized tools for processing Indian languages, enhancing data privacy and classification capabilities for regional text.
