Monolingual and Parallel Corpora for Kangri Low Resource Language
In this paper we present the dataset of the Himachali low resource endangered language, Kangri (ISO 6393xnr) listed in the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The compilation of kangri corpus has been a challenging task due to the non-availability of the digitalized resources. The corpus contains $1,81,552$ Monolingual and 27,362 Hindi-Kangri Parallel corpora. We shared pre-trained kangri word embeddings. We also reported the Bilingual Evaluation Understudy (BLEU) score and Metric for Evaluation of Translation with Explicit ORdering (METEOR) score of Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) and Neural Machine Translation (NMT) results for the corpus. The corpus is freely available for non-commercial usages and research. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first Himachali low resource endangered language corpus.
