Many existing ones are small, rule-based or machine-translated from English, such as Arabic-SQuAD. ArabicaQA fills this gap with a crowd-sourced dataset built on Arabic Wikipedia passages: 2. **[Negative Sampling Techniques in Dense Retrieval: A Survey](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wischounig-2026-negative-sampling-techniques-dense-retrieval/)** *(2026)* Dense retrievers are usually trained with contrastive objectives such as InfoNCE. Their quality depends heavily on which irrelevant passages, or negatives, the model is shown. This survey reviews 35 key papers on choosing those negatives for dense retrieval in NLP settings like RAG, question answering and dialogue.… ## All works 3 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Exploring the State of the Art in Legal QA Systems ↗](https://doi.org/10.1186/s40537-023-00802-8) arXiv:2304.06623 · J Big Data 10, 127 (2023) · no summary yet**Abdelrahman Abdallah, Bhawna Piryani, Adam Jatowt*2023 · 67 citations* 2. **[ArabicaQA: A Comprehensive Dataset for Arabic Question Answering](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/abdallah-2024-arabicaqa-comprehensive-dataset-arabic-question/) [International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (SIGIR)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/international-acm-sigir-conference-on-research-and-development-in-information/)**Abdelrahman Abdallah, Mahmoud Kasem, Mahmoud Abdalla, et al.*2024 · 47 citations* 3. **[Negative Sampling Techniques in Dense Retrieval: A Survey](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wischounig-2026-negative-sampling-techniques-dense-retrieval/) [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/)**Laurin Wischounig, Abdelrahman Abdallah, Adam Jatowt*2026* ## Co-authors here 1 co-author with a page, the most papers together first. - [Adam Jatowt](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/adam-jatowt/) ×2 ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/): [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2026/) - [International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (SIGIR)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/international-acm-sigir-conference-on-research-and-development-in-information/): [SIGIR 2024](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/international-acm-sigir-conference-on-research-and-development-in-information/2024/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 39 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [20 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/abdelrahman-abdallah/cited-by/).
