Abstract
Text processing is crucial for low-resource languages as it enables the development of tools and technologies that bridge the digital divide and provide equitable access to information and services. By empowering low-resource languages with robust text processing, we can preserve linguistic diversity, enhance education, improve communi- cation, and foster inclusivity in a rapidly digitizing world. Due to the lack of sufficient annotated datasets and lin- guistic resources, it is challenging to develop accurate and reliable language technologies for these low-resource languages. Large Language Models (LLMs) have attracted sig- nificant attention with their performance and the value they produce. However, with the ever-evolving language, adapting LLMs for a specific task is time-consuming and resource-intensive. Thus, Retrieval-Augmented Genera- tion (RAG) has overcome this limitation by augmenting LLMs with external knowledge, thereby improving their efficiency and extensive task-specific adaptation. Most applications of the RAG technique have been limited to English and has seen limited application in In- dic languages. This paper introduces the RAG-powered AI-Tutor application, Acharya 2.0, designed to produce academic assistance to Hindi-speaking students. The client-server-based web application integrates many fea- tures to support students in accessing and interacting with educational content.
