Hi Ronanki,

Most part of the proposal is fine with me but I would be particularly
interested in the below

a) Collection of data and extension of it to a more general sense
incorporating complex/compound sentences data.
b) Voice activity detection algorithm you can use so that distortion
gets reduced
c) extension to a global set for porting and extension into other languages
d) Achieving word sense disambiguation

and finally

e) working 48 hra/week (which is equivalent to full time work)

If you could elaborate on the above points a bit, I think it would be great.

Regards,
