The EC-funded NEMLAR network brought European and Middle Eastern partners together to fix this. They surveyed existing resources and consulted industry. Based on these findings, they specified an Arabic BLARK (Basic Language… 2. **[Semantic Query Expansion for Arabic Information Retrieval](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mahgoub-2014-semantic-query-expansion-arabic-information/)** *(2014 · 36 citations)* The paper addresses a weakness of plain keyword search for Arabic. It misses documents that express the query's meaning with different words, inflected forms, or more specific concepts, and ambiguous words make this worse. The authors build a query expansion layer on top of LUCENE (.Net). It draws on three resources: 3. **[A Compact Arabic Lexical Semantics Language Resource Based on the Theory of Semantic Fields](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/attia-2008-compact-arabic-lexical-semantics-language/)** *(2008 · 27 citations)* Arabic is highly inflective and derivative, so a sense inventory keyed on full word forms misses most words seen at runtime. 4. **[Automatic Arabic diacritics restoration based on deep nets](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sallab-2014-automatic-arabic-diacritics-restoration-based/)** *(2014 · 23 citations)* Modern Standard Arabic is usually written without diacritics, yet speech synthesis, translation and similar applications need them restored. ## Co-authors here 10 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Hazem Raafat](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/hazem-raafat/) ×2 - [Ahmad Al Sallab](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ahmad-al-sallab/) - [Ahmed Rafea](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ahmed-rafea/) - [Chomicha Bendahman](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/chomicha-bendahman/) - [Khalid Choukri](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/khalid-choukri/) - [Mohamed Al-Badrashiny](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mohamed-al-badrashiny/) - [Mohamed Attia](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mohamed-attia/) - [Mustafa Yaseen](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mustafa-yaseen/) - [Niklas Paulsson](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/niklas-paulsson/) - [Steven Krauwer](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/steven-krauwer/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [EMNLP Workshop on Arabic Natural Language Processing (ANLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp-workshop-on-arabic-natural-language-processing-anlp/) ×2: [ANLP 2014](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp-workshop-on-arabic-natural-language-processing-anlp/2014/) ×2 - [Language Resources and Evaluation Conference (LREC)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/lrec/) ×2: [LREC 2008](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/lrec/2008/), [LREC 2006](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/lrec/2006/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 13 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [12 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mohsen-rashwan/cited-by/).
