Evaluation of Small Language Models for Arabic Language Processing

1. 1Build a benchmark of test items for Arabic language processing tasks
2. 2Run the small language models on the benchmark using a standardized prompt template
3. 3Configure the evaluation protocol to assess model responses under a controlled zero-shot setting
4. 4Test the performance of the models on comprehension-oriented and generation-oriented tasks
5. 5Apply the evaluation methodology to other languages and domains

NLP researchers and developers working on Arabic language models can benefit from this study to improve their models' performance, and data scientists can apply the evaluation methodology to other languages

💡 Small language models can achieve competitive performance on Arabic language processing tasks in a zero-shot setting
