Claims27
A method comprising:
- determining whether a document is a single, non-Latin based language document, including identifying the single non-Latin language;
- and
- evaluating category models corresponding to the single non-Latin language to evaluate the document, if the document is determined to be a single, non-Latin based language document with the single, non-Latin language being identified.
An apparatus comprising:
- a receive module configured to receive a text fragment;
- and
- a processing module, operatively coupled to the receive module and configured to determine whether the text fragment is a multi-language text fragment, to determine a primary language of the multiple languages if the text fragment is determined to be a multi-language text fragment, and to evaluate category models corresponding to the primary language to evaluate the multi-language text fragment.
An article of manufacture comprising:
- a storage medium;
- and
- a plurality of programming instructions stored on the storage medium and designed to enable a device to:
- determine whether a text fragment is a non-Latin language text fragment, if not, determine a primary Latin language for the text fragment, and
- evaluate category models of one or more languages to evaluate the text fragment.
