| About SabdasUtra |
|
How are they useful |
| Polysemy is a major problem that one has to deal with while building bilingual lexical resources for the machine use. The concept of 'SabdasUtra' is an attempt to capture the underlying thread which relates various meanings in a polysymous word. |
|
Both 'SabsasUtras' and 'lakshancharts' can be useful for any machine translation system. They are particularly useful for the 'anusAraka' system. |
