Abstract
Techniques are described for predicting the language of a text excerpt. The language prediction is accomplished by comparing n-grams of the text excerpt with n-grams of different language references. A probability is calculated for each n-gram of the text excerpt with respect to each of the language references. The calculated probabilities corresponding to a single language are then averaged to yield an overall probability corresponding to that language, and the resulting overall probabilities are compared to find the most likely language of the sample text.
