Overcoming the language barrier
Bhashini’s mission is to overcome the language barrier in India, necessitating the development of a highly secure system with robust parameters to host evolving language models that continuously learn from data.
With a resilient infrastructure on Azure, the Bhashini platform provides a full array of services to overcome language barriers and improve accessibility.
Multiple AI-based language models
The Bhashini platform currently hosts over 300 AI-based language models encompassing Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), Machine Translation (MT), Text to Speech (TTS), Optical Character Recognition (OCR), Transliteration, and Textual Language Detection. This resilient infrastructure uses Azure PaaS services such as Azure ML, Azure Managed DBs and GPU VMs.
Bhashini includes an easy-to-use web service portal, a mobile app in beta version, a dataset repository, a specialised service for Speech to Speech, Text to Text, Speech to Text, OCR, and Transliterations and a crowd-sourcing platform known as Bhasha Daan, which invites active data contributions for AI model training. This diverse strategy promotes inclusion, supports different Indian languages, and encourages creativity in products and services.
