Dharmamitra: A Platform that Makes Translation and Discovery of Buddhist Texts Possible Across Language Barriers
Date:
I presented on the Dharmamitra platform as part of the panel “AI in the Fo Guang Dictionary of Buddhism English Translation Project and MITRA.” The panel showcased how emerging AI tools support large-scale Buddhist translation and lexicographical research. I introduced Dharmamitra as a collaborative AI-driven platform developed by Tohoku University with the Tsadra Foundation and Berkeley AI Research Lab, which employs Large Language Models for high-quality machine translation of Sanskrit, Pali, Tibetan, and Chinese alongside vector-based semantic retrieval.
