### Punjabi Transliteration Corpus (PTC)

The Punjabi Transliteration Corpus (PTC) is a comprehensive dataset containing 6.3 million
parallel sentences in Gurmukhi and Shahmukhi scripts. This corpus has been meticulously
compiled to support the development and evaluation of neural machine transliteration (NMT)
models for Punjabi text.

## Corpus Details
  - **Total Sentences:** 6.3 million
  - **Domains Covered:** Various domains including CCaligned, ccmatrix, TED, QED, OPUS, TIco,
  Wikimedia, Multicclaigned, Emille, IJCNLP, xlent, and paracrawl.
  - **Test Corpus:** FLORES-101

## Models:
  ### <u>Gurmukhi-to-Shahmukhi Model</u>
    - **BLEU Score:** 98.1
    - **Word-level Accuracy:** 99.5%
    - **Character Error Rate (CER):** 99.1%

  ### <u>Shahmukhi-to-Gurmukhi Model</u>
    - **BLEU Score:** 87.7

## Usage
These resources are intended to facilitate research and development in the field of Punjabi
transliteration. They can be used to train new models or improve existing ones, enabling high-quality
transliteration between Gurmukhi and Shahmukhi scripts.
