Original:  In this work , we pre-train a Gigaword-based bilingual language model (GigaBERT) to study these two distant languages as well as zero-short transfer learningon various IE tasks. Our GigaBERT outperforms multilingual BERT and and monolingual AraBERT on these tasks, in both supervised and zero-shot learning settings. footnote We have made our pre-trained models publicly available at URL
Revised:  In this work , we pre-train a customized bilingual BERT, dubbed GigaBERT, that is designed specifically for Arabic NLP and English-to-Arabic zero-shot transfer learning. We study GigaBERT's effectiveness on zero-short transfer across four IE tasks: named entity recognition, part-of-speech tagging, argument role labeling, and relation extraction. Our best model significantly outperforms mBERT, XLM-RoBERTa, and AraBERT (Antoun et al., 2020) in both the supervised and zero-shot learning settings. footnote We have made our pre-trained models publicly available at URL
