New Anuvani-LID model excels at identifying Indian languages

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new research paper introduces Anuvani-LID, a specialized model designed for robust and calibrated spoken language identification specifically for Indian languages. The model, trained on over 54,000 hours of audio across 22 Indian languages and Indian accented English, significantly outperforms general-purpose models like Gemini 3.5 Flash and GPT-audio on short audio inputs. Anuvani-LID achieves a mean macro-F1 score of 0.914, demonstrating its effectiveness in handling the complexities of multilingual speech in India, including noisy and code-mixed audio. AI

IMPACT Enhances the accuracy of multilingual speech pipelines for Indian languages, potentially improving downstream applications like translation and routing.
