Alif - Urdu Pretrained LLM
Description
Alif is a pretrained language model designed for Urdu, aimed at improving natural language processing (NLP) tasks like text generation, translation, and sentiment analysis. The project focuses on curating high-quality Urdu datasets, cleaning and preprocessing text, and training an effective but smaller model.
