# Tamil Deep Learning Awesome List



> A curated catalog of open-source resources for Tamil NLP & AI.






The estimated worldwide Tamiḻ-speaking population is around 80-85 million, which is near to the population of Germany. Hence it is crucial to work on natural language processing for தமிழ் (Tamiḻ) and develop tools inorder to ensure the language is digitally well-represented.



This list will serve as a catalog for all resources related to Tamil NLP.
