Spoken Language Identification with Pre-trained Models and Margin Loss

arXiv:2605.01905v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For the speaker-controlled spoken language identification task proposed in the TidyLang Challenge 2026, this paper proposes a language identification method based on pre-trained models and margin-based losses. The proposed method adopts a pre-trained ECAPA-TDNN as the feature encoder and incorporates margin-based losses to enhance the discriminative ability of language representations, thereby improving inter-class separability and reducing the interference of non-linguistic factors such as speaker characteristics. Experimental results on the Tidy-X dataset show that the proposed method achieves 85.95% macro accuracy and 90.96% micro accuracy on the language identification task and 17.08% equal error rate (EER) on the verification task. Compared with the official baseline, the macro accuracy improves by 45.7%, the micro accuracy improves by 15.2%, and the EER is reduced by approximately 50.8%, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method.
