We present BhashaSetu, a linguistically enriched English--Marathi parallel dataset addressing persistent data limitations in low-resource neural machine translation (NMT). Marathi, spoken by over 95 million people, remains underrepresented in high-quality parallel corpora across diverse domains. Our dataset comprises 2.78 million sentence pairs from heterogeneous sources including news, politics, healthcare, literature, and culture, with stemmed and lemmatized representations to support morphology-aware analysis. We benchmark multiple state-of-the-art translation models using BLEU, spBLEU, chrF++, and TER metrics, and conduct parameter-efficient fine-tuning of NLLB-200-distilled-600M using LoRA. A key finding from our ablation: corpus-level deduplication is the single largest preprocessing contributor to downstream quality (removing it reduces performance by 1.17 BLEU and 2.21 chrF++), demonstrating that disciplined cross-source corpus hygiene is a low-cost, high-impact intervention for low-resource, morphologically rich languages. The dataset is publicly released to promote reproducible and linguistically informed low-resource NMT research.

Understanding how Large Language Models (LLMs) process information from prompts remains a significant challenge. To shed light on this "black box," attention visualization techniques have been developed to capture neuron-level perceptions and interpret how models focus on different parts of input data. However, many existing techniques are tailored to specific model architectures, particularly within the Transformer family, and often require backpropagation, resulting in nearly double the GPU memory usage and increased computational cost. A lightweight, model-agnostic approach for attention visualization remains lacking. In this paper, we introduce a model-agnostic token importance visualization technique to better understand how generative AI systems perceive and prioritize information from input text, without incurring additional computational cost. Our method leverages perturbation-based strategies combined with a three-matrix analytical framework to generate relevance maps that illustrate token-level contributions to model predictions. The framework comprises: (1) the Angular Deviation Matrix, which captures shifts in semantic direction; (2) the Magnitude Deviation Matrix, which measures changes in semantic intensity; and (3) the Dimensional Importance Matrix, which evaluates contributions across individual vector dimensions. By systematically removing each token and measuring the resulting impact across these three complementary dimensions, we derive a composite importance score that provides a nuanced and mathematically grounded measure of token significance. To support reproducibility and foster wider adoption, we provide open-source implementations of all proposed and utilized explainability techniques, with code and resources publicly available at https://github.com/Infosys/Infosys-Responsible-AI-Toolkit

This paper describes a highly developed personalised recommendation system using multimodal, autonomous, multi-agent systems. The system focuses on the incorporation of futuristic AI tech and LLMs like Gemini-1.5- pro and LLaMA-70B to improve customer service experiences especially within e-commerce. Our approach uses multi agent, multimodal systems to provide best possible recommendations to its users. The system is made up of three agents as a whole. The first agent recommends products appropriate for answering the given question, while the second asks follow-up questions based on images that belong to these recommended products and is followed up with an autonomous search by the third agent. It also features a real-time data fetch, user preferences-based recommendations and is adaptive learning. During complicated queries the application processes with Symphony, and uses the Groq API to answer quickly with low response times. It uses a multimodal way to utilize text and images comprehensively, so as to optimize product recommendation and customer interaction.

The emergence of reasoning models and their integration into practical AI chat bots has led to breakthroughs in solving advanced math, deep search, and extractive question answering problems that requires a complex and multi-step thought process. Yet, a complete understanding of why these models hallucinate more than general purpose language models is missing. In this investigative study, we systematicallyexplore reasoning failures of contemporary language models on multi-hop question answering tasks. We introduce a novel, nuanced error categorization framework that examines failures across three critical dimensions: the diversity and uniqueness of source documents involved ("hops"), completeness in capturing relevant information ("coverage"), and cognitive inefficiency ("overthinking"). Through rigorous hu-man annotation, supported by complementary automated metrics, our exploration uncovers intricate error patterns often hidden by accuracy-centric evaluations. This investigative approach provides deeper insights into the cognitive limitations of current models and offers actionable guidance toward enhancing reasoning fidelity, transparency, and robustness in future language modeling efforts.

This work proposes a method for underwater image enhancement using the principle of histogram equalization. Since underwater images have a global strong dominant colour, their colourfulness and contrast are often degraded. Before applying the histogram equalisation technique on the image, the image is converted from coloured image to a gray scale image for further operations. Histogram equalization is a technique for adjusting image intensities to enhance contrast. The colours of the image are retained using a convolutional neural network model which is trained by the datasets of underwater images to give better results.
