Al-Kabi, Bashar Talafhah, Izzat Alsmadi | Jordan University of Science and Technology, Al-Balqa' Applied UniversityAl-Buraimi University College, Texas A&M University-San Antonio | Sentiment Analysis (SA) is one of the hottest research areas in Natural Language Processing (NLP) with vast commercial as well as academic applications. One of the most interesting versions of SA is called Aspect-Based SA (ABSA). Currently, most of the researchers focus on English text. Other languages such as Arabic have received less attention. To the best of our knowledge, only few papers have addressed ABSA of Arabic reviews and they have all been applied on only three datasets. In this work, we demonstrate our efforts to build the Arabic Laptops Reviews (ALR) dataset, which focuses on laptops reviews written in Arabic. To make it easy to use, the ALR dataset is prepared according to the annotation scheme of SemEval16-Task5. The annotation scheme considers two problems: aspect category prediction and sentiment polarity label prediction. It also comes with an evaluation procedure that extracts n-grams’ features and employs a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier in order to allow researchers to gauge and compare the performance of their systems. The evaluation results show that there is a lot of room for improvements in the performance of the SVM classifier for the aspect category prediction problem. As for the sentiment polarity label prediction, SVM’s accuracy is actually high. | Wafaa Mohammed |

Althobaiti | Department of Computer Science, College of Computers and Information Technology, Taif University | The wide usage of multiple spoken Arabic dialects on social networking sites stimulates increasing interest in Natural Language Processing (NLP) for dialectal Arabic (DA). Arabic dialects represent true linguistic diversity and differ from modern standard Arabic (MSA). In fact, the complexity and variety of these dialects make it insufficient to build one NLP system that is suitable for all of them. In comparison with MSA, the available datasets for various dialects are generally limited in terms of size, genre and scope. In this article, we present a novel approach that automatically develops an annotated country-level dialectal Arabic corpus and builds lists of words that encompass 15 Arabic dialects. The algorithm uses an iterative procedure consisting of two main components: automatic creation of lists for dialectal words and automatic creation of annotated Arabic dialect identification corpus. To our knowledge, our study is the first of its kind to examine and analyse the poor performance of the MSA part-of-speech tagger on dialectal Arabic contents and to exploit that in order to extract the dialectal words. The pointwise mutual information association measure and the geographical frequency of word occurrence online are used to classify dialectal words. The annotated dialectal Arabic corpus (Twt15DA), built using our algorithm, is collected from Twitter and consists of 311,785 tweets containing 3,858,459 words in total. We randomly selected a sample of 75 tweets per country, 1125 tweets in total, and conducted a manual dialect identification task by native speakers. The results show an average inter-annotator agreement score equal to 64%, which reflects satisfactory agreement considering the overlapping features of the 15 Arabic dialects. | Mustafa Ghaleb |

This is partly due to lack of labeled data. In this work, we describe and manually validate a method for the automatic acquisition of emotion labeled data and introduce a newly developed data set for Modern Standard and Dialectal Arabic emotion detection focused at Robert Plutchik’s 8 basic emotion types. Using a hybrid supervi- sion method that exploits first person emotion seeds, we show how we can acquire promis- ing results with a deep gated recurrent neu- ral network. Our best model reaches 70% F- score, significantly (i.e., 11%, p < 0.05) out- performing a competitive baseline. Applying our method and data on an external dataset of 4 emotions released around the same time we fi- nalized our work, we acquire 7% absolute gain in F-score over a linear SVM classifier trained on gold data, thus validating our approach | Emad A.

We aim to evaluate and improve popular multilingual language models (ML-LMs) to help advance commonsense reasoning (CSR) beyond English. We collect the Mickey corpus, consisting of 561k sentences in 11 different languages, which can be used for analyzing and improving ML-LMs. We propose Mickey Probe, a language-general probing task for fairly evaluating the common sense of popular ML-LMs across different languages. In addition, we also create two new datasets, X-CSQA and X-CODAH, by translating their English versions to 14 other languages, so that we can evaluate popular ML-LMs for cross-lingual commonsense reasoning. To improve the performance beyond English, we propose a simple yet effective method — multilingual contrastive pretraining (MCP). It significantly enhances sentence representations, yielding a large performance gain on both benchmarks (e.g., +2.7% accuracy for X-CSQA over XLM-R_L). | Khalid N. Elmadani |

It allows researchers to calculate readability for Arabic text with and without diacritics. OSMAN is a modified version of the conventional readability formulas such as Flesch and Fog. In our work we introduce a novel approach towards counting short, long and stress syllables in Arabic which is essential for judging readability of Arabic narratives. We also introduce an additional factor called “Faseeh” which considers aspects of script usually dropped in informal Arabic writing. To evaluate our methods we used Spearman’s correlation metric to compare text readability for 73,000 parallel sentences from English and Arabic UN documents. The Arabic sentences were written with the absence of diacritics and in order to count the number of syllables we added the diacritics in using an open source tool called Mishkal. The results show that OSMAN readability formula correlates well with the English ones making it a useful tool for researchers and educators working with Arabic tex | Emad A. Alghamdi |

Unlike previous cross-lingual tasks, LAReQA tests for “strong” cross-lingual alignment, requiring semantically related cross-language pairs to be closer in representation space than unrelated same-language pairs. Building on multilingual BERT (mBERT), we study different strategies for achieving strong alignment. We find that augmenting training data via machine translation is effective, and improves significantly over using mBERT out-of-the-box. Interestingly, the embedding baseline that performs the best on LAReQA falls short of competing baselines on zero-shot variants of our task that only target “weak” alignment. This finding underscores our claim that language agnostic retrieval is a substantively new kind of cross-lingual evaluation. | Wafaa Mohammed |

primarily spoken dialects of the Arabic language. Arabic dialects are generally
under-resourced compared to Modern Standard Arabic, the primarily written and
official form of Arabic. We start in the article with a background description that
situates Palestinian Arabic linguistically and historically and compares it to Modern
Standard Arabic and Egyptian Arabic in terms of phonological, morphological,
orthographic, and lexical variations. We then describe the methodology we developed to collect Palestinian Arabic text to guarantee a variety of representative
domains and genres. We also discuss the annotation process we used, which
extended previous efforts for annotation guideline development, and utilized
existing automatic annotation solutions for Standard Arabic and Egyptian Arabic.
The annotation guidelines and annotation meta-data are described in detail. The
Curras Palestinian Arabic corpus consists of more than 56 K tokens, which are annotated with rich morphological and lexical features. The inter-annotator agreement results indicate a high degree of consistency. | Maged S. Alshaibani |

This is particularly the case in a language such as Arabic with morphological and orthographic challenges, and we discuss various
aspects of these issues in the context of the Arabic Treebank. The Standard Arabic Morphological Analyzer (SAMA) is closely
integrated into the annotation workflow, as the basis for the abstraction between the explicit source text and the more abstract token
representation. However, this integration with SAMA gives rise to various problems for the annotation workflow and for maintaining
the link between the Treebank and SAMA. In this paper we discuss how we have overcome these problems with consistent and more
precise categorization of all of the tokens for their relationship with SAMA. We also discuss how we have improved the creation of
several distinct alternative forms of the tokens used in the syntactic trees. As a result, the Treebank provides a resource relating the
different forms of the same underlying token with varying degrees of vocalization, in terms of how they relate (1) to each other, (2) to
the syntactic structure, and (3) to the morphological analyzer. | Mustafa Ghaleb |

Such systems often include, grammar and vocabulary components, while the pronunciation learning seems to be the hardest step in language learning process. Little attention has been paid to this aspect among the required ones in CALL systems. In pronunciation learning context, the learner would like to know if its pronunciation is good or bad. In the case where the pronunciation is bad, it will be suitable if some advices are given to him. The goal of this work is an early detection of pupils with reading difficulties and in the issue of decision whether their pronunciation is good or not is our particular interest. For this purpose, we consider the answer to this question as a classification problem and we use a statistical approach to make a decision; this approach allows us to pursue the investigation concerning the pronunciation of every phoneme in the word or in the sentence. | Zaid Alyafeai |

Integrating emotions in human–computer interaction is of great importance to effectively simulate real life scenarios. Research has been focusing on recognizing emotions from acted speech while little work was done on natural real life
utterances. English, French, German and Chinese corpora were used for that purpose while no natural Arabic corpus was found to date. In this paper, emotion recognition in Arabic spoken data is studied for the first time. A realistic speech corpus from Arabic TV shows is collected. The videos are labeled by their perceived emotions; namely happy, angry or
surprised. Prosodic features are extracted and thirty-five classification methods are applied. Results are analyzed in this paper and conclusions and future recommendations are identified. | Abdelrahman Rezk |

Most researchers develop their own script to perform document alignment task, which requires efforts and time. In this paper, we present WikiDocsAligner, an off-the-shelf Wikipedia Articles alignment handy tool. The implementation of WikiDocsAligner does not require the researchers to import/export of interlanguage links databases. The user just need to download Wikipedia dumps (interlanguage links and articles), then provide them to the tool, which performs the alignment. This software can be used easily to align Wikipedia documents in any language pair. Finally, we use WikiDocsAligner to align comparable documents from Arabic Wikipedia and Egyptian Wikipedia. So we shed the light on Wikipedia as a source of Arabic dialects language resources. The produced resources is interesting and useful as the demand on Arabic/dialects language resources increased in the last decade. | Zaid Alyafeai |

Multimodal modeling techniques aim to leverage large high-quality visio-linguistic datasets for learning complementary information (across image and text modalities). In this paper, we introduce the Wikipedia-based Image Text (WIT) Dataset (this https URL) to better facilitate multimodal, multilingual learning. WIT is composed of a curated set of 37.6 million entity rich image-text examples with 11.5 million unique images across 108 Wikipedia languages. Its size enables WIT to be used as a pretraining dataset for multimodal models, as we show when applied to downstream tasks such as image-text retrieval. WIT has four main and unique advantages. First, WIT is the largest multimodal dataset by the number of image-text examples by 3x (at the time of writing). Second, WIT is massively multilingual (first of its kind) with coverage over 100+ languages (each of which has at least 12K examples) and provides cross-lingual texts for many images. Third, WIT represents a more diverse set of concepts and real world entities relative to what previous datasets cover. Lastly, WIT provides a very challenging real-world test set, as we empirically illustrate using an image-text retrieval task as an example. | Khalid N. Elmadani |

| nan | The need for raw large raw corpora has dramatically increased in recent years with the introduction of transfer learning and
semi-supervised learning methods to Natural Language Processing. And while there have been some recent attempts to
manually curate the amount of data necessary to train large language models, the main way to obtain this data is still through
automatic web crawling. In this paper we take the existing multilingual web corpus OSCAR and its pipeline Ungoliant that
extracts and classifies data from Common Crawl at the line level, and propose a set of improvements and automatic annotations
in order to produce a new document-oriented version of OSCAR that could prove more suitable to pre-train large generative
language models as well as hopefully other applications in Natural Language Processing and Digital Humanities.

Generally, there are two techniques for sentiment analysis, machine learning method, and lexicon-based method. This work focuses on extracting and analyzing Twitter data written in Sudanese Arabic dialect to observe opinionated patterns regarding the quality of telecommunication services operating in Sudan. One of the significant limitations in the field of text classification is the exclusive focus on the English language. There is a need to bridge this gap by developing efficient methods and tools for sentiment analysis in the Arabic language. Moreover, reliable corpus and lexicons are needed. For this study, four classifiers were trained on a dataset consist of 4712 tweets. Namely Naïve Bayes, SVM, Multinomial Logistic Regression and K-Nearest Neighbor to conduct a comparative analysis on the performance of the classifiers. These algorithms when ran against the tweets dataset the results revealed that SVM gives the highest F1-score (72.0) while the best accuracy was achieved by KNN (k=2) and it equals to 92.0. | Khalid N.

Given a query, the task of entity retrieval from a KG aims at presenting a ranked list of entities relevant to the query. Lately, an increasing number of models for entity retrieval have shown a significant improvement over traditional methods. These models, however, were developed for English KGs. In this work, we build on onesuchsystem, named KEWER, to propose SERAG (Semantic Entity Retrieval from Arabic knowledge Graphs). Like KEWER, SERAG uses random walks to generate entity embeddings. DBpedia-Entity v2 is considered the standard test collection for entity retrieval. We discuss the challenges of using it for non-English languages in general and Arabic in particular. We provide an Arabic version of this standard collection, and use it to evaluate SERAG. SERAG is shown to significantly outperform the popular BM25 model thanks to its multi-hop reasoning. | Kamel GAANOUN |

In this paper, a transfer learning
framework is proposed to jointly use a large amount of Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) data and little amount of dialectal Arabic data to
improve acoustic and language modeling. The Qatari Arabic (QA) dialect has been chosen as a typical example for an under-resourced
Arabic dialect. A wide-band speech corpus has been collected and transcribed from several Qatari TV series and talk-show programs.
A large vocabulary speech recognition baseline system was built using the QA corpus. The proposed MSA-based transfer learning
technique was performed by applying orthographic normalization, phone mapping, data pooling, acoustic model adaptation, and system

field of automated speech recognition (ASR). These systems are crucial
for real-world applications where high levels of noise tend to be present.
We introduce a noise robust system based on Echo State Networks and
Extreme Kernel machines which we call ESNEKM. To evaluate the performance of the proposed system, we used our recently released public
Arabic speech dataset and the well-known spoken Arabic digits (SAD)
dataset. Different feature extraction methods considered in this study
include mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs), perceptual linear
prediction (PLP) and RASTA- perceptual linear prediction. These extracted features were fed to the ESNEKM and the result compared with
a baseline hidden Markov model (HMM), so that nine models were compared in total. ESNEKM models outperformed HMM models under all
the feature extraction methods, noise levels, and noise types. The best
performance was obtained by the model that combined RASTA-PLP
with ESNEKM. | Zaid Alyafeai |

store and access information about entities and
their relationships. Given a query, the task of
entity retrieval from a KG aims at presenting
a ranked list of entities relevant to the query.
Lately, an increasing number of models for entity retrieval have shown a significant improvement over traditional methods. These models,
however, were developed for English KGs. In
this work, we build on one such system, named
KEWER, to propose SERAG (Semantic Entity Retrieval from Arabic knowledge Graphs).
Like KEWER, SERAG uses random walks to
generate entity embeddings. DBpedia-Entity
v2 is considered the standard test collection
for entity retrieval. We discuss the challenges
of using it for non-English languages in general and Arabic in particular. We provide an
Arabic version of this standard collection, and
use it to evaluate SERAG. SERAG is shown
to significantly outperform the popular BM25
model thanks to its multi-hop reasoning.

Arabic ontology in the infectious disease domain to support various important applications including the monitoring of infectious disease
spread via social media. This ontology meaningfully integrates the scientific vocabularies of infectious diseases with their informal
equivalents. We use ontology learning strategies with manual checking to build the ontology. We applied three statistical methods for
term extraction from selected Arabic infectious diseases articles: TF-IDF, C-value, and YAKE. We also conducted a study, by consulting
around 100 individuals, to discover the informal terms related to infectious diseases in Arabic. In future work, we will automatically
extract the relations for infectious disease concepts but for now these are manually created. We report two complementary experiments
to evaluate the ontology. First, a quantitative evaluation of the term extraction results and an additional qualitative evaluation by a
domain expert. | Zaid Alyafeai |
