Earlier work treated propaganda and hate in memes as separate problems, and Arabic multimodal resources are scarce. The authors take the ArAIEval-2024 propagandistic meme dataset (about 3k memes) and add two layers: a coarse… 2. **[AHA-Memes: A Fine-Grained Multimodal Benchmark for Understanding Hate in Arabic Memes](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/kmainasi-2026-aha-memes-fine-grained-multimodal/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Hateful memes express hostility through the combination of picture, caption and shared cultural background. 3. **[ArabicDialectSafety: A Dialect-Aware Benchmark for Arabic Content Safety Classification](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zaghouani-2026-arabicdialectsafety-dialect-aware-benchmark-arabic/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Arabic safety filters are usually built and tested on Modern Standard Arabic. Harmful requests phrased in regional dialects can therefore slip past them. Earlier Arabic safety resources either ignore dialects, mix them without labels, or are too small to evaluate each dialect separately. 4. **[Audience Engagement with Arabic Women's Social Empowerment and Wellbeing: A Decadal Corpus](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zaghouani-2026-audience-engagement-arabic-women-s/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Arabic NLP has many sentiment and emotion datasets, but most label the feeling expressed in the text itself. 5. **[MarsadLab at AraGenEval Shared Task: LLM-Based Approaches to Arabic Authorship Style Transfer and Identification](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/biswas-2025-marsadlab-arageneval-shared-task-llm/)** *(2025 · 1 citation)* The paper describes the MarsadLab entry to the AraGenEval shared task at ArabicNLP 2025. The task has two parts: rewriting a Modern Standard Arabic passage so it reads like a particular author while keeping its meaning, and recognising which of 21 authors wrote a given excerpt. The authors note that Arabic work in… 6. **[ArGuard Shared Task: Harmful Content Detection in Arabic Memes and LLM Prompts](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/alam-2026-arguard-shared-task-harmful-content/)** *(2026)* ArGuard is a 2026 shared task on detecting harmful Arabic content in two settings that earlier work treated separately: multimodal memes and prompts sent to LLMs. 7. **[ClimateChat-300K: A Multi-Modal Facebook Dataset for Understanding Diverse Perspectives in Climate Communication](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zaghouani-2026-climatechat-300k-multi-modal-facebook/)** *(2026)* Studies of online climate discourse focus heavily on Twitter, partly because privacy rules and API limits make Facebook data hard to obtain. ## Also in our library 19 more works of theirs are in our library without a page here yet; they will appear as we publish them. ## Co-authors here 10 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Wajdi Zaghouani](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/wajdi-zaghouani/) ×7 - [Firoj Alam](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/firoj-alam/) ×4 - [Mabrouka Bessghaier](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mabrouka-bessghaier/) ×4 - [Abul Hasnat](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/abul-hasnat/) ×2 - [Ali Ezzat Shahroor](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ali-ezzat-shahroor/) ×2 - [George Mikros](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/george-mikros/) ×2 - [Mohamed Bayan Kmainasi](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mohamed-bayan-kmainasi/) ×2 - [Shimaa Amer Ibrahim](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shimaa-amer-ibrahim/) ×2 - [Hamdy Mubarak](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/hamdy-mubarak/) - [Kholoud Khalil Aldous](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/kholoud-khalil-aldous/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 159 times (of the 140 884 papers whose bibliographies we read); [11 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/md-rafiul-biswas/cited-by/).
