• Abstract: This paper presents our approach to address the EACL WANLP-2021 Shared Task 1: Nuanced Arabic Dialect Identification (NADI). The task is aimed at developing a system that identifies the geographical location(country/province) from where an Arabic tweet in the form of modern standard Arabic or dialect comes from. We solve the task in two parts. The first part involves pre-processing the provided dataset by cleaning, adding and segmenting various parts of the text. This is followed by carrying out experiments with different versions of two Transformer based models, AraBERT and AraELECTRA. Our final approach achieved macro F1-scores of 0.216, 0.235, 0.054, and 0.043 in the four subtasks, and we were ranked second in MSA identification subtasks and fourth in DA identification subtasks.

  We describe the findings of the fifth Nuanced Arabic Dialect Identification Shared Task (NADI 2024) NADI 2024 targeted both dialect identification cast as a multi-label task and identification of the Arabic level of dialectness. Winning teams achieved 50.57 Ftextsubscript1 on Subtask1, 0.1403 RMSE for Subtask2, and 20.44 BLEU in Subtask3, respectively.
