High-Resource Translation: Turning Abundance into Accessibility Y anampally Abhiram Reddy ABV -IIITM Gwalior, MP, India Abstract --This paper presents a novel approach to constructing an English-to-T elugu translation model by leveraging transfer learning techniques and addressing the challenges associated with low-resource languages. Utilizing the Bharat Parallel Corpus Collection (BPCC) as the primary dataset, the model incorporates iterative backtranslation to generate synthetic parallel data, effectively augmenting the training dataset and enhancing the model's translation capabilities. The focus of this research extends beyond mere translation accuracy; it encompasses a comprehensive strategy for improving model performance through data augmentation, optimization of training parameters, and the effective utilization of pre-trained models. By adopting these methodologies, we aim to create a more robust translation system that can handle a diverse range of sentence structures and linguistic nuances inherent to both English and T elugu. This research highlights the significance of innovative data handling techniques and the potential of transfer learning in overcoming the limitations posed by sparse datasets in low-resource languages.This research not only contributes to the field of machine translation but also aims to facilitate better communication and understanding between English and T elugu speakers in real-world contexts. Future work will concentrate on further enhancing the models robustness and expanding its applicability to more complex sentence structures, ultimately ensuring its practical usability across various domains and applications. I NTRODUCTION Machine translation (MT) is a significant subfield of natural language processing (NLP) that focuses on automatically translating text from one language to another.
