  1. Pearl: A Multimodal Culturally-Aware Arabic Instruction Dataset (2025 · 11 citations)
    Large vision-language models (LVLMs) tend to reflect Western viewpoints. Existing cultural VQA resources often rely on translated material, cover few images or topics, ask shallow factual questions, and treat a culture as uniform. The authors built Pearl to address these gaps. It is a large Arabic multimodal…
  2. Alexandria: A Multi-Domain Dialectal Arabic Machine Translation Dataset for Culturally Inclusive and Linguistically Diverse LLMs (2026 · 4 citations)
    In day-to-day life, Arabic speakers mostly use their local dialects instead of Modern Standard Arabic. MT systems trained mainly on MSA or English-centric data therefore handle dialectal input poorly. Earlier parallel resources (PADIC, MADAR, FLORES+) have limits: narrow domains, short sentences, or dialect entries…
  3. Addax at WojoodNER 2024: Attention-Based Dual-Channel Neural Network for Arabic Named Entity Recognition (2024 · 2 citations)
    The paper describes the Addax team's system for the flat subtask of the WojoodNER 2024 shared task. The task is Arabic named entity recognition with fine-grained subtypes. The data is the Wojood Fine corpus, which is mostly Modern Standard Arabic with some dialectal social media text.
  4. GemMaroc: Unlocking Darija Proficiency in LLMs with Minimal Data (2025 · 1 citation)
    Open LLMs handle Moroccan Arabic (Darija) poorly. Earlier fixes, such as Atlas-Chat with 458k supervised examples, were costly. This paper asks whether a small, carefully chosen instruction set can bring out Darija ability that a strong multilingual backbone already holds, without hurting its reasoning. The authors…
  5. Phoenix at Palmx: Exploring Data Augmentation for Arabic Cultural Question Answering (2025 · 1 citation)
    Open small LLMs often know little about Arab culture, largely because their training data is dominated by English.
