- ArabicTransformer: Efficient Large Arabic Language Model with Funnel Transformer and ELECTRA Objective (2021 · 8 citations)
Pre-training large Transformer encoders for Arabic, as done for AraBERT and AraELECTRA, is expensive. That cost puts large models out of reach for many research groups. The authors look for an architecture that grows capacity without raising pre-training cost. They combine Funnel Transformer with the ELECTRA… - Generative Approach for Gender-Rewriting Task with ArabicT5 (2022 · 7 citations)
The paper addresses Arabic gender rewriting. The task is to change a sentence so that first- and second-person references (I/you) match a requested gender combination, using the APGC corpus. The prior state of the art, the multi-step model of Alhafni et al., chains four components: gender identification, a… - 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… - ArTrivia: Harvesting Arabic Wikipedia to Build A New Arabic Question Answering Dataset (2023 · 2 citations)
Arabic extractive QA datasets suffer from three problems: narrow topical coverage (few source articles), skewed question patterns from crowd workers (about a third of Arabic TyDi questions simply ask what or who an entity is), and small size due to crowd-sourcing costs. - AraVQA: Building a New Arabic Factoid Visual Question Answering Dataset from Wikipedia (2026 · 1 citation)
Arabic vision–language models have few resources for testing encyclopedic, fact-based knowledge. Existing Arabic VQA sets mostly cover culture or dialects, are small and hand-curated, or are not public. The authors built an automatic pipeline over the Arabic Wikipedia dump. It uses MediaWiki template tags to split…
