Naamah: A Large Scale Synthetic Sanskrit NER Corpus via DBpedia Seeding and LLM Generation
The digitisation of classical Sanskrit literature is impeded by a scarcity of annotated resources, particularly for Named Entity Recognition. While recent methodologies utilise generic Large Language Models (LLMs) for data augmentation, these approaches remain prone to error and often lack the reasoning depth required for classical grammar. In this work, we introduce Naamah, a high quality silver standard Sanskrit NER dataset comprising 102,942 sentences. We propose a methodology that combines entity extraction from DBpedia with the generative capabilities of a 24B parameter hybrid reasoning model to create grammatically natural and synthetically diverse training data. We utilize this dat...
