- The Shared Task on Gender Rewriting (2022 · 3 citations)
This paper reports on a shared task, held at WANLP 2022, on gender rewriting for Modern Standard Arabic. The task takes a sentence and produces versions that fit each combination of speaker gender and listener gender. In Arabic, words that refer to the first or second person carry grammatical gender, so a system that… - From FusHa to Folk: Exploring Cross-Lingual Transfer in Arabic Language Models (2026 · 1 citation)
Arabic language models are mostly pretrained on Modern Standard Arabic (MSA, FusHa) and are expected to work on the spoken dialects (DA), whose distance from MSA varies widely. - Maastricht University at AMIYA: Adapting LLMs for Dialectal Arabic using Fine-tuning and MBR Decoding (2026)
Large language models still handle regional Arabic varieties poorly compared with Modern Standard Arabic. For the AMIYA shared task (closed data track), the authors adapted the JAIS-2 model to Syrian, Moroccan and Saudi Arabic. They trained two kinds of LoRA adapter for each dialect. One learns from raw monolingual…
