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 at the intersection of Computational Linguistics, Natural Language Processing, and Knowledge Graphs with a particular emphasis on low-resource languages such as Sanskrit and other Indian languages. My recent work has focused on building datasets, models, benchmarks, and evaluation frameworks grounded in linguistic structure. My interests also include Artificial Intelligence, Information Retrieval, Human-Computer Interaction, and Data Mining.
