| # Center for Low-Resource Languages and Cultures (CLRLC) |
|
|
| CLRLC is a language research AI organisation building datasets, models, and benchmarks for African and other low-resource languages. |
|
|
| ## What we build |
|
|
| - **Datasets:** speech and text corpora for African and other low-resource languages, including code-switched data |
| - **Models:** machine translation, speech (ASR and TTS), and NLP models for under-resourced languages |
| - **Benchmarks:** evaluation sets for low-resource, multilingual, and culturally grounded AI |
| - **Tooling:** pipelines and resources for ethical data collection and annotation |
|
|
| ## Research areas |
|
|
| - Low-resource and multilingual NLP |
| - Machine translation |
| - Speech technology |
| - Code-switching (including Yoruba, Igbo, and Nigerian Pidgin) |
| - Culturally grounded evaluation and benchmarking |
| - AI governance for African languages |
