Langdetect
Language detection library ported from Google language-detection.
About
Langdetect is a Python port of Nakatani Shuyo's Java language-detection library. It uses a naive Bayesian classifier over character n-gram frequencies trained from Wikipedia text and supports 55 languages identified by ISO 639-1 codes. Results are non-deterministic for very short or ambiguous inputs unless a seed is set. The library is small, has no heavy dependencies, and is released under the Apache 2.0 license.
