Beta testing of a dynamic language identification software component - preliminary results
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2014, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Automatic language identification in a given text belongs to a general category of algorithms of text classifications with many applications. Some recent developments concerns language dependent speech synthesis. For such application, dynamic language identification is required, involving special algorithms, capable to dynamically recognize the language in texts received as a continuous stream of data. This paper presents some preliminary results during the testing of two different versions of the dynamic language identification implementation (alpha and beta), with emphasis on the second one. Two parameters were manipulated during testing: the amount of analyzed text and the inertia in changing the language. The evaluation has been done from a usability perspective with a focus on the effectiveness and efficiency of language identification. Beta testing results are useful to reveal the optimal level of parameters and suggest new directions to improve the method and algorithms.
