NLP LLM Arabic AI Research Finance

Summary

Researchers introduce a new task for generating question-passage pairs to aid in developing regulatory question-answering (QA) systems. The ObliQA dataset, comprising 27,869 questions from Abu Dhabi Global Markets (ADGM) financial regulations, is presented. A baseline Regulatory Information Retrieval and Answer Generation (RIRAG) system is designed and evaluated using the RePASs metric.

A Case Study for Compliance as Code with Graphs and Language Models: Public release of the Regulatory Knowledge Graph

arXiv ·

This paper introduces a Regulatory Knowledge Graph (RKG) for the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) regulations, constructed using language models and graph technologies. A portion of the regulations was manually tagged to train BERT-based models, which were then applied to the rest of the corpus. The resulting knowledge graph, stored in Neo4j, and code are open-sourced on GitHub to promote advancements in compliance automation.

QU-NLP at QIAS 2025 Shared Task: A Two-Phase LLM Fine-Tuning and Retrieval-Augmented Generation Approach for Islamic Inheritance Reasoning

arXiv ·

The QU-NLP team presented their approach to the QIAS 2025 shared task on Islamic Inheritance Reasoning, fine-tuning the Fanar-1-9B model using LoRA and integrating it into a RAG pipeline. Their system achieved an accuracy of 0.858 on the final test, outperforming models like GPT 4.5, LLaMA, and Mistral in zero-shot settings. The system particularly excelled in advanced reasoning, achieving 97.6% accuracy. Why it matters: This demonstrates the effectiveness of domain-specific fine-tuning and retrieval augmentation for Arabic LLMs in complex reasoning tasks, even surpassing frontier models.
