# 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?"])
```
