# Language Detection with StaticVectors

This model is an export of this [FastText Language Identification model](https://fasttext.cc/docs/en/language-identification.html) for [`staticvectors`](https://github.com/neuml/staticvectors). `staticvectors` enables running inference in Python with NumPy. This helps it maintain solid runtime performance.

Language detection is an important task and identification with n-gram models is an efficient and highly accurate way to do it.

## Usage with StaticVectors

```python
from staticvectors import StaticVectors

model = StaticVectors("neuml/language-id")
model.predict(["What language is this text?"])
```
