Arabic multimodal work has been held back by a lack of native caption data, and most existing sets are translated from English, which loses cultural detail. The organizers addressed this with two linked subtasks. The first was… 2. **[NAKBA NLP 2026: Shared Task on Arabic Handwritten Manuscript Understanding (Palestine Memory–Omar Al-Saleh Memoir)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/hamoud-2026-nakba-nlp-2026-shared-task/)** *(2026 · 5 citations)* Historical Arabic handwriting remains hard to convert into searchable text. The causes include variable letterforms, damaged pages and Arabic-specific issues such as dropped diacritics. Open benchmarks for this problem are also scarce. The NAKBA NLP 2026 shared task addresses the gap with one large single-author… 3. **[Arabic Topic Classification in the Generative and AutoML Era](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/albared-2023-arabic-topic-classification-generative-automl/)** *(2023 · 2 citations)* Arabic topic classifiers have mostly been fine-tuned encoders working with a handful of news categories. The authors ask whether newer options, an instruction-tuned multilingual generative model or commercial AutoML services, work well for Arabic with a broader label set. They built ArBNTopic, a 14-topic dataset that… 4. **[NeoAraBERT: A Modern Foundation Model for Arabic Embeddings with Diacritics-Aware Tokenization and POS-Targeted Masking](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chakra-2026-neoarabert-modern-foundation-model-arabic/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Arabic text encoders such as AraBERT, ARBERT and MARBERT still use older BERT-era designs. They lack rotary positions, SwiGLU and Pre-RMSNorm, and they largely ignore diacritics. The authors port the NeoBERT architecture to Arabic and pre-train it on a deduplicated corpus that mixes MSA, Classical Arabic and… 5. **[AREEj: Arabic Relation Extraction with Evidence](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mraikhat-2024-areej-arabic-relation-extraction-evidence/)** *(2024 · 1 citation)* The paper extends Arabic relation extraction so that each predicted link between two entities also comes with a short text span that justifies it. 6. **[DRU at WojoodNER 2024: ICL LLM for Arabic NER](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/hamdan-2024-dru-wojoodner-2024-icl-llm/)** *(2024 · 1 citation)* The paper describes a system for the open track of the WojoodNER 2024 shared task, specifically flat fine-grained Arabic NER (Subtask 3A). 7. **[Arabic Citation Parsing using Part of Speech and Named Entity Recognition](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/karout-2026-arabic-citation-parsing-part-speech/)** *(2026)* The paper tackles citation element extraction (CEE) for Arabic: given a reference string, label its parts (author, title, publisher, location, date, pages, translator and so on) and decide whether the text is a citation at all. ## All works 8 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 7 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[ImageEval 2025: The First Arabic Image Captioning Shared Task](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bashiti-2025-imageeval-2025-first-arabic-image/) [Arabic Natural Language Processing Conference (ArabicNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/arabicnlp/)**Ahlam Bashiti, Alaa Aljabari, Hadi Hamoud, et al.*2025 · 13 citations* 2. **[NAKBA NLP 2026: Shared Task on Arabic Handwritten Manuscript Understanding (Palestine Memory–Omar Al-Saleh Memoir)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/hamoud-2026-nakba-nlp-2026-shared-task/) [International Workshop on Nakba Narratives as Language Resources @ LREC](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/nakbanlp/)**Hadi Hamoud, Ahmad Ali Chamseddine, Bilal Shalash, et al.*2026 · 5 citations* 3. **[Arabic Topic Classification in the Generative and AutoML Era](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/albared-2023-arabic-topic-classification-generative-automl/) [Arabic Natural Language Processing Conference (ArabicNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/arabicnlp/)**Doha Albared, Hadi Hamoud, Fadi Zaraket*2023 · 2 citations* 4. **[NeoAraBERT: A Modern Foundation Model for Arabic Embeddings with Diacritics-Aware Tokenization and POS-Targeted Masking](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chakra-2026-neoarabert-modern-foundation-model-arabic/) [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/)**Chadi Abou Chakra, Hadi Khaled Hamoud, Osama Rakan Al Mraikhat, et al.*2026 · 1 citation* 5. **[AREEj: Arabic Relation Extraction with Evidence](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mraikhat-2024-areej-arabic-relation-extraction-evidence/) [Arabic Natural Language Processing Conference (ArabicNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/arabicnlp/)**Osama Rakan Al Mraikhat, Hadi Hamoud, Fadi A.
