PINGALA: Prosody-Aware Decoding for Sanskrit Poetry Generation

arXiv CS.CL

ArXi:2603.24413v1 Announce Type: new Poetry generation in Sanskrit typically requires the verse to be semantically coherent and adhere to strict prosodic rules. In Sanskrit prosody, every line of a verse is typically a fixed length sequence of syllables adhering to prescribed binary patterns of syllable weights. We observe that instead of treating a verse as a monolithic sequence, segmenting them as grouped-lines leads to significant improvement in semantic coherence by 10\% with comparable metrical adherence.
