Project Title

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. By enhancing Urdu NLP capabilities, Alif can benefit applications in education, media, and AI-driven communication, bridging the gap in low-resource language processing.
