Hi,
At present, I am working as a Research Engineer in a company called MyScript (
www.myscript.com). Our company specializes in online handwriting recognition for several languages.
Minesh Mathew, who is applying for the spellchecker project under 'Indic Project' has requested me if I can mentor his project in case the organization do not assign any mentor(s) from their side. I have gone through his project proposal draft which suggests to use modern ML approaches to error detection and correction in the context of an inflectional language like Malayalam. In fact I had earlier worked in this domain and has a publication in ICDAR 2013 titled as 'Error Detection in Highly inflectional Languages'.
If his proposal is selected for GSoC I am willing to mentor him for the entire period.
Looking forward to your reply
Regards,
Naveen TS
