Dear Apertium folks, I'm writing to express my interest in participating in the GSoC with Apertium. I'm a first-year Ph.D. student in the NLP domain. I'm excited to work with the Apertium community on developing translation technology for low-resource languages, particularly Bodo. Bodo is a low-resource language primarily spoken in the Northeastern region of India. As an NLP researcher and native speaker of Bodo, I'm committed to building technology to preserve and promote indigenous languages like Bodo.
I'm interested in adding a new language English-Bodo to the Apertium platform through this GSoC program or otherwise. I believe this can potentially impact the translation technology for low resources. Additionally, due to the following points: (i) There is no existing publicly available translation technology for English-Bodo. (ii) Bodo is a low-resource language (potentially ample contribution space remains). (iii) Belongs to the Sino-Tibetan language family, unlike other Indian languages like Hindi and Assamese. I would like to know if this is a potential project. If so, I would like to interact with potential mentors. Any comments on the English-Bodo language pair are most welcome. With Regards, Maharaj Brahma Research Scholar Dept. of Computer Science & Engineering CS23RESCH01004 -- Disclaimer:- This footer text is to convey that this email is sent by one of the users of IITH.
