Abstract

Machine Translation (MT) is a science fiction that was converted into reality with the enormous contributions from the MT research community. We cannot expect any text without Named Entities (NE). Such NEs are crucial in deciding the quality of MT. NEs are to be recognized from the text and transliterated accordingly into the target language in order to ensure the quality of MT. In the present paper we present various technical issues encountered during handling the shared task of NE transliteration for Tamil.
