Abstract

The Kaṭapayādi system of encoding numbers as words by replacing each digit by a character was developed in ancient India. We present a web-based system that for conversion to and from the Kaṭapayādi numbering scheme. It can both decode a word into its corresponding number, and can encode a number into word(s).

My research lies in the intersection of Computational Linguistics, Natural Language Processing, and Graph Databases with a particular emphasis on low-resource languages such as Sanskrit and other Indian languages. I am committed to pioneering innovations that have a real-world impact. My interests also include Artificial Intelligence, Databases, Human-Computer Interaction, Information Retrieval, and Data Mining.
