New Resource: DeformAr Diagnostic Framework for Arabic NLP
Ahmed Younes
الحمد لله رب العالمين
I'm pleased to announce that I have officially been awarded my PhD from the University of Sussex!
My thesis, "DeformAr: Rethinking NER Evaluation through Component Analysis and Visual Analytics," is now available here:
The core goal of this work was to highlight the bias in current NLP approaches and propose a new diagnostic framework that, inshallah (إن شاء الله), will accelerate this research area for Arabic. This should save future researchers the time needed to reach similar conclusions and allow others to directly build upon this work.
The diagnostic framework and component decomposition ideas presented can be generalized to any NLP task and model architecture.
I am grateful to Nizar Habash, Karim Darwish, Camel Lab, Benjeeba, and everyone in this group. I have learned a significant amount from you all that helped me during this journey; you were the light that I could see at the end of the tunnel. I also thank Walid Magdeed for his invaluable comments and corrections that shaped the thesis into its current form. I appreciate everything.
I am keen to collaborate with anyone interested in applying the framework on their experiments. If you are interested, please get in touch!
Allahumma Taqabal. (اللهم تقبل)
