An Introduction to Lid Systems

Abstract

The main task of automatic Language Identification (LID) is to quickly and accurately identify the language being spoken. Language identification has numerous applications in a wide range of multi-lingual services e.g. LID systems used to route an incoming telephone call to a human switchboard operator fluent in the corresponding language. Also, the LID application can be used to handle emergency calls. An LID system can serve as a front end for multi-lingual translation software. Humans are currently the most accurate language identification systems in the world. With a short period of training, people are able to identify a language within seconds of hearing an utterance. Even if one is not able to speak in a particular language then also he or she can relate the unknown language to a particular known language by observing the similarities in utterance. So the question inevitably arises as to what the benefits are gained by making Language Identification an automatic process that can be performed by a machine. The obvious answers are the reduced costs and less training time associated with automated LID systems. For multi-language identification tasks, people involved have to be fluent in all languages under consideration or else they have to be trained properly that they can properly distinguish between the languages. This consumes a lot of time and money. On the other hand, an LID system can be trained once and then run on multiple machines simultaneously in order to correctly identify a particular language from a set of languages.
