Abstract
Natural Language Processing (NLP) has found application in various linguistic and semantic tasks, such
as machine translation, question answering, and paraphrasing. One important aspect of NLP is the
automatic extraction or generation of lexical equivalences for different word components,
expressions, and sentences. This process plays a critical role in enhancing the performance of several
NLP applications, including data augmentation and text summarization. While the development of
such systems has predominantly focused on high-resource languages, there is a growing need to
address low-resource languages.
This paper specifically focuses on building a paraphrasing model for Hindi using recurrent neural
networks, namely Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), with Adaptive
Attention. The task is challenging due to sentence structure and word reordering, which the paper
aims to overcome. The performance of the models is evaluated using BLEU and METEOR scores, both
of which indicate favorable results. The LSTM model with applied attention emerges as the superior
model.
In summary, this paper presents a detailed approach to developing a paraphrasing model for Hindi
using LSTM and GRU with Adaptive Attention. The models show promising performance, as
demonstrated by the evaluation metrics. The inclusion of sentence structuring and word relocation
techniques adds complexity to the task but helps address the unique challenges of the Hindi language.

Introduction
These tools are commonly used by writers, researchers, students, and content creators
who need to produce new content while avoiding copying or duplicating existing work.
By using a paraphrasing tool in Python, users can save time and effort, while also
ensuring that their work is unique and original.
There are various paraphrasing tools available in Python, ranging from simple text
editors with basic rephrasing functionality to complex NLP libraries that use machine
learning algorithms to produce highly accurate results. These tools can be customized
to suit specific needs and requirements, and are often integrated with other software
applications to provide a seamless workflow.
1
A paraphrasing tool in Python is a software program that is used to assist users in
generating alternative versions of existing text. These tools use Natural Language
Processing (NLP) techniques to analyze input text, identify important concepts, and
rephrase the content in a way that preserves the meaning while avoiding plagiarism and
maintaining context.
When using a paraphrasing tool in a Python project, it is important to select a tool that
is appropriate for the task at hand. Some tools are better suited for specific types of
content, such as technical writing, while others are more general-purpose.
Additionally, it is important to consider factors such as accuracy, speed, and ease of
integration into the project workflow.

The implementation details of a paraphrasing tool in Python can vary depending onthe
specific approach and techniques used
2. Tokenization: The text is split into individual words or tokens, which are then used
as the basis for the paraphrasing process.
3. Part-of-speech tagging: The tokens are tagged with their corresponding part-of-
speech (POS) tags, which can be used to identify the relationships between words in a
sentence.

5. Evaluation: The output text is often evaluated to ensure that it is grammatically
correct, semantically meaningful, and preserves the original meaning of the input text.
6. Data preparation: Collect a dataset of text documents that can be used to train and
evaluate the paraphrasing model. The dataset should include a mix of text genres and
styles to ensure that the model is able to handle a range of input text.
9. Refinement: Refine the paraphrasing tool based on the evaluation results and
feedback from users. This may involve fine-tuning the algorithm or adjusting
parameters to improve the quality of the paraphrased output.
