WHY TO USE YALI
Contains pretrained models for identifying 122 languages.
Allows to create own models, trained on texts from specific domain, which outperforms the pretrained ones.
It is based on published paper http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/~majlis/yali/.
COMPARISON WITH OTHERS
Lingua::Lid can recognize 45 languages and returns only the most probable result without any weight.
Lingua::Ident requires training files, so it is similar to Lingua::YALI::LanguageIdentifier, but it does not provide any options for constructing models.
Lingua::Identify can recognize 33 languages but it does not allows you to use different models.
