Hi, Jan Høydahl You are right. I am hoping to detect the language of a query,
so that the serarching can be done according to the language detected. Since
people often type a few words, which is too few to detect, then it is hard to
do that. Let me describe a little bit about the solr server in my design. It
consists of several cores, corresponding to the several languages, which is
built during indexing. Since language detection in indexing can be done with
Tika identifier, then we are currently OK. But the problem is about searching.
I want to do language detection first before do searching in the individual
cores. In the case that detection result is ambiguous and several languages are
returned, we probably returns a set of results, and let user to decide which
language set of results they want to look into. In general, it is just the same
with the language supported by google. Do you have some suggestions if I want
to achieve multilingual search described as above? Thank you.
Best Regards
Ni, Bing
