This project focuses on building an Arabic language model to be utilized in Arabic natural language processing (NLP) tasks such as sentiment analysis, named-entity recognition, and question answering. The Arabic language model will also be used at the different stages of Arabic speech recognition. The research is taken further to support unsupervised, self-training for using parallel processing.
