CognitiveLab has been named as one of the recipients of Meta's 2024 Llama Impact Grants for their work on multilingual AI project Nayana.
Nayana is a multilingual, multimodal language model developed by CognitiveLab that integrates Llama for document and image processing, focusing on over 22 languages.
The grant will be used to expand Nayana's language coverage, enhance multimodal capabilities, build training datasets, and develop tools for deployment in low-resource environments.
With over 1 billion downloads and 85,000 derivative models, Llama models are widely adopted globally, with India being one of the largest markets for Llama adoption.
