Resource efficient hybrid baseline for named entity recognition in classical Arabic Ramzi Salah, Muaadh Mukred, Lailatul Qadri binti Zakaria, Fuad Ali Mohammed Al-Yarimi, Ibrahim T. Nather Khasro, Ali Safaa Sadiq Scientific Reports, 2026 The major challenge manifesting in resource-efficient named entity recognition for Classical Arabic may be attributed to the language’s rich morphology, orthographic variation, and the limitation in computing budgets. Thus, this study develops and proposes a hybrid approach that is compact, integrating linguistically informed rules, genetic-algorithm (GA) feature selection, and a multinomial Naive Bayes tagger. The system is exposed to CANER with leakage-controlled splits and documented statistical procedures thereafter achieving micro-F1 93.0% (with a precision of 93.3% and recall of 92.7%), with macro-F1 88.7%. Based on per-class analysis, boundary-aware rules mainly increased precision for frequent entities, namely PER and LOC. On the other hand, GA-controlled sparsity determined recall in minority categories, as in SECT and DAY. The combined pipeline was confirmed to produce a balanced precision-recall profile compared to individual components, along with significant minimized feature dimensionality and training time. Notably, new transformer baselines are untrained owing to limitations in computations and data, but rather the contribution is generatable and interpretable reference baseline for Classical Arabic. This has transparent implementation details and evaluation safeguards for bringing about replication and accurate comparison. Even though higher macro-F1 is achieved by transformer systems, based on the findings, a meticulously engineered hybrid can produce competitive effectiveness in the face of limited settings and valuable diagnostic views through interpretative error patterns.

Background: The integration of assistive technologies into inclusive learning environments has gained significant attention due to its potential to improve educational outcomes for students with disabilities. Despite this growing interest, limited empirical research has explored the determinants of such technologies’ adoption, particularly through the technology acceptance model lens. This study addresses this gap by extending the technology acceptance model framework to incorporate additional constructs such as social support, motivation, digital literacy, and self-efficacy, offering a more comprehensive understanding of user acceptance in inclusive contexts. Methodology: A mixed-method design was employed. The quantitative phase involved a survey of 118 students enrolled in six inclusive education programs across Saudi Arabian universities. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling via SmartPLS to examine the relationships between the proposed constructs. Complementing this, the qualitative phase included in-depth interviews with eight AI experts specializing in assistive technologies for students with disabilities, providing contextual insights and validating the quantitative findings. Contribution: This study advances the technology acceptance model by integrating key psychological and social variables (social support, motivation, digital literacy, and self-efficacy) into the adoption framework. Doing so offers a more nuanced perspective on how students with special needs interact with and perceive AI-based assistive tools, addressing a critical gap in current inclusive education research. Findings: The findings from the quantitative analysis indicate that social support and motivation significantly enhance perceived usefulness, while digital literacy and self-efficacy significantly enhance perceived ease of use. Both usefulness and ease of use substantially affect intention toward adopting assistive technology. Additionally, the qualitative findings reveal key themes emphasizing user-friendly designs, contextual adaptability, ethical considerations, and AI’s potential to promote student autonomy. Recommendations for Practitioners: Expert interviews underscore the necessity for ongoing professional development among educators to effectively implement assistive AI tools. Furthermore, fostering partnerships between technology developers and educators is critical for designing tools that meet the real-world needs of inclusive classrooms. Recommendation for Researchers: By extending the technology acceptance model, this study opens new avenues for future research into other influencing factors, such as institutional readiness, cultural considerations, and policy support. Researchers are encouraged to apply this enriched model in various educational and geographical contexts to further validate its applicability. Impact on Society: Understanding the factors that influence the adoption of assistive technology is essential for fostering inclusive and equitable education systems. This study contributes to the development of policies and implementation strategies that ensure students with disabilities can fully benefit from emerging educational technologies.

This study proposes an advanced, machine learning-driven system to enhance reviewer selection by leveraging big data analytics. The system aggregates and standardizes reviewer information from multiple sources, starting from a database of existing credible reviewers of an academic journal and exploring their respective social networks to identify other potential quality journal reviewers, ensuring data integrity through structured citation metrics such as the h-index and citation history. Additionally, novel indicators—such as citation recency and impact growth—are introduced to dynamically assess reviewer expertise and relevance. Machine learning algorithms are then employed to predict reviewer suitability, assigning relevance scores and using natural language processing (NLP) techniques to align reviewers with specific journal topics. Automated reports provide journal editors with data-driven insights, streamlining decision-making and reducing bias. Future iterations will enhance interoperability with editorial management systems for broader adoption. This approach optimizes reviewer selection, making the peer review process more efficient, transparent, and data-driven.
