Translation can introduce errors and leaves out content rooted in the Arab world. To fill this gap, the authors built ArabicMMLU, the first MMLU-style benchmark written natively in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA). They… 2. **[Jais 2: A Family of Arabic-Centric Open Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/anwar-2026-jais-2-family-arabic-centric/)** *(2026 · 14 citations)* Most large language models are trained mostly on English. Arabic, with its complex morphology, diglossia and many regional dialects, is poorly covered, so general multilingual models handle it only partly. This is especially true for dialects and culturally specific content. The Jais team (MBZUAI, Cerebras… 3. **[ANER: Arabic and Arabizi Named Entity Recognition using Transformer-Based Approach](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sadallah-2023-aner-arabic-arabizi-named-entity/)** *(2023 · 3 citations)* Named entity recognition for Arabic is hard for several reasons. The morphology is dense with clitics. Diacritics are usually omitted, which makes words ambiguous. There is no capitalization, and dialects vary widely. Existing tools also mostly stop at four coarse classes. The authors built ANER, a fine-grained… ## Also in our library 2 more works of theirs are in our library without a page here yet; they will appear as we publish them. ## Co-authors here 12 of 13 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Abed Alhakim Freihat](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/abed-alhakim-freihat/) - [Biswajit Mishra](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/biswajit-mishra/) - [Etienne Goffinet](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/etienne-goffinet/) - [Fajri Koto](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/fajri-koto/) - [Gurpreet Gosal](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/gurpreet-gosal/) - [Haonan Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/haonan-li/) - [Neha Sengupta](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/neha-sengupta/) - [Nizar Habash](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/nizar-habash/) - [Preslav Nakov](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/preslav-nakov/) - [Rituraj Joshi](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/rituraj-joshi/) - [Sara Shatnawi](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/sara-shatnawi/) - [Shady Shehata](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shady-shehata/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 164 times (of the 140 884 papers whose bibliographies we read); [29 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/abdelrahman-sadallah/cited-by/).
