1. NAKBA NLP 2026: Shared Task on Arabic Handwritten Manuscript Understanding (Palestine Memory–Omar Al-Saleh Memoir) (2026 · 5 citations)
   Historical Arabic handwriting remains hard to convert into searchable text. The causes include variable letterforms, damaged pages and Arabic-specific issues such as dropped diacritics. Open benchmarks for this problem are also scarce. The NAKBA NLP 2026 shared task addresses the gap with one large single-author…
2. NeoAraBERT: A Modern Foundation Model for Arabic Embeddings with Diacritics-Aware Tokenization and POS-Targeted Masking (2026 · 1 citation)
   Arabic text encoders such as AraBERT, ARBERT and MARBERT still use older BERT-era designs. They lack rotary positions, SwiGLU and Pre-RMSNorm, and they largely ignore diacritics. The authors port the NeoBERT architecture to Arabic and pre-train it on a deduplicated corpus that mixes MSA, Classical Arabic and…
3. DRU at WojoodNER 2024: ICL LLM for Arabic NER (2024 · 1 citation)
   The paper describes a system for the open track of the WojoodNER 2024 shared task, specifically flat fine-grained Arabic NER (Subtask 3A).
