Please help :-) Ablation-tested phonological decoder (EVA → Elu-Sinhala)
#8
thanks for the welcome and good questions
the dictionary is modern sinhala, not medieval. thats a fair weakness to point out. medieval elu vocabulary would be different and i havent been able to source a proper historical elu dictionary yet. thats one reason i want a sinhala linguist involved, someone who knows the old forms.
the tier breakdown is a bit confusing the way its written, let me clarify. the english gloss is the decoder's own internal lookup — when it maps EVA to phonemes it has a built-in table that assigns english meanings to common output strings. so that 91.9% means the decoder recognised the output and could label it. the 4.5% sinhala dictionary match is an independent check against an external dictionary, which is much stricter. so theres a gap there that needs honest acknowledgment — the decoder labels its own outputs confidently but external validation is lower.
the coverage of common words is something i'd like to test properly. if anyone has suggestions on what a baseline sinhala word frequency list should look like for a pharmaceutical text id be interested.
and thanks for the correction on Q20 starting at folio 103, ill fix that
