📚 Training Data

The model was trained on a curated collection of Georgian text from various domains:

• News articles
• Subtitles
• Books and web content

Data was cleaned, tokenized with whitespace, and normalized to standard Georgian orthography.

💬 Intended Use

This model is ideal for:

• Beam search decoding in ASR systems (e.g., Whisper, DeepSpeech, Vosk)
• Scoring and reranking ASR hypotheses
• Basic text modeling or spelling correction in Georgian

🧪 Example Usage

import kenlm

def transliterate_georgian(text):
    georgian_to_latin = {
    'ა': 'a', 'ბ': 'b', 'გ': 'g', 'დ': 'd', 'ე': 'e', 'ვ': 'v', 'ზ': 'z', 'თ': 'T', 'ი': 'i',
    'კ': 'k', 'ლ': 'l', 'მ': 'm', 'ნ': 'n', 'ო': 'o', 'პ': 'p', 'ჟ': 'J', 'რ': 'r', 'ს': 's',
    'ტ': 't', 'უ': 'u', 'ფ': 'f', 'ქ': 'q', 'ღ': 'R', 'ყ': 'y', 'შ': 'S', 'ჩ': 'C', 'ც': 'c',
    'ძ': 'Z', 'წ': 'w', 'ჭ': 'W', 'ხ': 'x', 'ჯ': 'j', 'ჰ': 'h'}
    
    return ''.join(georgian_to_latin.get(char, char) for char in text)

model = kenlm.Model("ge_model9.arpa")
sentence = "ეს არის ტესტი"
print(model.score(transliterate_georgian(sentence), bos=True, eos=True))
