Dialect and standard language identification are crucial tasks for many Arabic natural language processing applications. In this paper, we present our deep learning-based system, submitted to the second NADI shared task for country-level…
The rapid growth of social media has amplified the spread of offensive, violent, and vulgar speech, which poses serious societal and cybersecurity concerns. Detecting such content in Arabic text is particularly complex due to limited…
Since their inception, transformer-based language models have led to impressive performance gains across multiple natural language processing tasks. For Arabic, the current state-of-the-art results on most datasets are achieved by the…
Stance Detection (SD) on social media has emerged as a prominent area of interest with implications for social business and political applications thereby garnering escalating research attention within NLP. The inherent subtlety and…
Social media currently provide a window on our lives, making it possible to learn how people from different places, with different backgrounds, ages, and genders use language. In this work we exploit a newly-created Arabic dataset with…
This paper presents our strategy to tackle the EACL WANLP-2021 Shared Task 2: Sarcasm and Sentiment Detection. One of the subtasks aims at developing a system that identifies whether a given Arabic tweet is sarcastic in nature or not, while…
This paper describes our submission to SemEval-2022 Task 6 on sarcasm detection and its five subtasks for English and Arabic. Sarcasm conveys a meaning which contradicts the literal meaning, and it is mainly found on social networks. It has…
Sarcasm is a form of figurative language where the intended meaning of a sentence differs from its literal meaning. This poses a serious challenge to several Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications such as Sentiment Analysis, Opinion…
The role of predicting sarcasm in the text is known as automatic sarcasm detection. Given the prevalence and challenges of sarcasm in sentiment-bearing text, this is a critical phase in most sentiment analysis tasks. With the increasing…
This paper proposes a novel approach to an automatic estimation of three speaker traits from Arabic speech: gender, emotion, and dialect. After showing promising results on different text classification tasks, the multi-task learning (MTL)…
Sentiment classification and sarcasm detection are both important natural language processing (NLP) tasks. Sentiment is always coupled with sarcasm where intensive emotion is expressed. Nevertheless, most literature considers them as two…
Sarcasm detection, as a crucial research direction in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP), has attracted widespread attention. Traditional sarcasm detection tasks have typically focused on single-modal approaches (e.g., text),…
Sarcasm is a nuanced and often misinterpreted form of communication, especially in text, where tone and body language are absent. This paper proposes a modular deep learning framework for sarcasm detection, leveraging Deep Convolutional…
Sarcasm is a linguistic expression often used to communicate the opposite of what is said, usually something that is very unpleasant with an intention to insult or ridicule. Inherent ambiguity in sarcastic expressions, make sarcasm…
Sarcasm is a complex linguistic phenomenon that involves a disparity between literal and intended meanings, making it challenging for sentiment analysis and other emotion-sensitive tasks. While traditional sarcasm detection methods…
This paper describes the systems submitted to iSarcasm shared task. The aim of iSarcasm is to identify the sarcastic contents in Arabic and English text. Our team participated in iSarcasm for the Arabic language. A multi-Layer machine…
The prevalence of toxic content on social media platforms, such as hate speech, offensive language, and misogyny, presents serious challenges to our interconnected society. These challenging issues have attracted widespread attention in…
Multi-task learning (MTL) has achieved remarkable success in natural language processing applications. In this work, we study a multi-task learning model with multiple decoders on varieties of biomedical and clinical natural language…
Supervised deep learning requires large amounts of training data. In the context of the FIRE2019 Arabic irony detection shared task (IDAT@FIRE2019), we show how we mitigate this need by fine-tuning the pre-trained bidirectional encoders…
Prediction of language varieties and dialects is an important language processing task, with a wide range of applications. For Arabic, the native tongue of ~ 300 million people, most varieties remain unsupported. To ease this bottleneck, we…
