Adding related words to a question can retrieve more relevant passages, but it also brings in noise. The authors use a semantic QE method built on Arabic WordNet (AWN). It expands question keywords along four relation types… 3. **[A description and demonstration of SAFAR framework](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bouzoubaa-2021-description-demonstration-safar-framework/)** *(2021 · 7 citations)* Arabic NLP has many separate tools and resources, but they are rarely available in one consistent, extensible environment. 4. **[Murabaa: A comprehensive Resource Platform for Arabic Morphology](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bouzoubaa-2026-murabaa-comprehensive-resource-platform-arabic/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Arabic NLP lacks reliable, openly available morphological resources. Existing lists are scattered, often undiacritized, tied to particular corpora, or hard-coded inside tools such as stemmers and analyzers. The authors address this with Murabaa, a platform that rebuilds Arabic word structure from its smallest units… 5. **[QAMAR: A New Fully Verified and Accurate Quranic Arabic Morphological Analysis Resource.](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/faqihi-2026-qamar-new-fully-verified-accurate/)** *(2026)* Quranic text is written in Classical Arabic using the Uthmani script. Existing morphological corpora of the Qur'an share several recurring flaws: words with more than one conflicting analysis, little or no human checking, stems and lemmas that do not match each other, script-specific marks leaking into the… ## Co-authors here 6 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Driss Namly](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/driss-namly/) ×3 - [Rachida Tajmout](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/rachida-tajmout/) ×3 - [Hakima Khamar](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/hakima-khamar/) ×2 - [Lahsen Abouenour](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/lahsen-abouenour/) ×2 - [Paolo Rosso](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/paolo-rosso/) ×2 - [Hamid Jaafar](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/hamid-jaafar/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Workshop on NLP for Languages Using Arabic Script](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/abjadnlp/) ×2: [Workshop on NLP for Languages Using Arabic Script 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/abjadnlp/2026/) ×2 - [EACL Workshop on Computational Approaches to Semitic Languages](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl-workshop-on-computational-approaches-to-semitic-languages/): [EACL Workshop on Computational Approaches to Semitic Languages 2009](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl-workshop-on-computational-approaches-to-semitic-languages/2009/) - [Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (EACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/): [EACL 2021](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/2021/) - [Global Wordnet Conference](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/gwc/): [Global Wordnet Conference 2016](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/gwc/2016/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 8 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [5 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/karim-bouzoubaa/cited-by/).
