Native Language Identification
5 papers with code · 1 benchmark · 2 datasets archive 2025-07-28
Native Language Identification (NLI) is the task of determining an author's native language (L1) based only on their writings in a second language (L2).
Description from the archive archive 2025-07-28.
Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28
1 leaderboard table shown for this task, 1 with rows (a “benchmark” on this site is a table with at least one row, as on /sota), ordered by row count. “Best model” is the first row in the archive's own order at snapshot; nothing is re-ranked here and metric direction is not recorded in the archive. PwC's Trend sparklines are not in the archive, so that column is omitted.
| Dataset | Best model (first row in archive order) | Paper | Code | Syntology | Compare |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| italki NLI (2 rows) | Tubasfs | Fewer features perform well at Native Language Identification task | — | — | Compare |
Syntology column: samples harvested from the paper's repositories and executed on synthesized fixtures; “ran” is not a correctness claim and does not order the table. A dash means no Syntology record for that paper, not a recorded non-run. Read from the graph 2026-09-24.
