Abstract

In traditional language identification methods, it is not so easy for search engines to find relevant language database of a given query. Therefore, there is a need to identify the relevant user's natural language query of unknown document database in a better way by automatic language identification. This novel approach presents an automatic method for classification of English and Arabic language identification. The classifier used is a three-layered feed-forward artificial neural network and the feature vector is formed by calculating the wavelet coefficients. Three wavelet decomposition functions (filters), namely Haar, Bior 2.2 and Bior 3.1 have been used to extract the feature vector set and their performance has been compared.
