Statistical Features and PageRank Scoring Fusion for Arabic Text Summarization Omer Salim Bahakam, Mohammed Salem Farag Binwahlan, Hassen A. Mogaibel International Conference on Intelligent Technology System and Service for Internet of Everything Itss Ioe 2022, 2022 online text content is increasing daily, making it a big challenge for readers to find the required information. So, providing a gist of the available text content can help those readers save their time and effort. This operation is completed by Automatic Text Summarization (ATS), which creates a summary for the entire text. Automatic Text Summarization can be achieved by many techniques, such as graph theory, statistics, machine learning, and clustering methods. Each of the above techniques takes care of a specific issue of text which other techniques do not. Text summarization for the Arabic language suffers from a lack of resources and language complexity. So, it is worthwhile to take the advantages of two or more text summarization techniques and fuse them together to improve their performance and enhance their summary quality. This study proposes a method that combines two of the ATS methods, which are the statistical based method and the graph-based modified PageRank algorithm. Graph-based techniques take care of relationships among document sentences, whereas statistical-based techniques take care of signalizing important sentences. Experiment results show that proposed method achieved a good performance. The Essex Arabic Summaries Corpus (EASC) was used as evaluation data.
Event-Based Rumor Detection using LSTM Models For Arabic Content on Twitter Arwa AlAttas, Hassen A. Mogaibel, Mohammed Salem BinWahlan International Conference on Intelligent Technology System and Service for Internet of Everything Itss Ioe 2022, 2022 Due to the flexibility of sharing and exchanging information, Microblogging networks such as Twitter have become more and more popular over the last few years. The nature of social media as well provides a rich and facilitated ground for rumormongers to spread false stories and information that may result in major mess and unpredictable reactions from involved individuals. Detecting rumors automatically at their early formative and diffusion phases is particularly crucial to minimize their negative and catastrophic effects. Many effective solutions to detect rumors on Twitter have been presented over the last few years. However, most of the researches were limited to certain languages, such as English and Chinese. Few studies focused on the Arabic Language; Most of those studies were concerned only to detect rumors at the tweet-level and neglecting event-level based detection. In this paper, we built two RNN-LSTM deep learning models to classify Arabic Twitter content as rumor or non-rumor more efficiently utilizing linguistic features. The constructed models are capable to detect rumor events on Twitter. An attention mechanism was embedded to optimize the performance of these models where they achieved accuracy above 93%.
Differential evolution cluster-based text summarization methods Albaraa Abuobieda, Naomie Salim, Mohammed Salem Binwahlan, Ahmed Hamza Osman Proceedings 2013 International Conference on Computer Electrical and Electronics Engineering Research Makes A Difference Icceee 2013, 2013 In this paper, three similarity measures; Normalized Google Distance (NGD), Jaccard and Cosine Similarity measures were employed and tested for textual based clustering problem. A robust evolutionary algorithm called Differential Evolution algorithm was also used to optimize the data clustering process and increase the quality of the generated text summaries. The Recall Oriented Under Gisting Evaluation (ROUGE) was used as an evaluation measure toolkit to assess the quality of the summaries. Experimental results showed that all of our proposed methods outperformed the benchmark methods. More importantly, the Jaccard-similarity based method surpassed all the other proposed methods in this study.
Plagiarism detection scheme based on semantic role labeling Ahmed Hamza Osman, Naomie Salim, Mohammed Salem Binwahlan, Ssennoga Twaha, Yogan Jaya Kumar, Albaraa Abuobieda Proceedings 2012 International Conference on Information Retrieval and Knowledge Management CAMP 12, 2012 Nowadays, many documents are available on the internet and are easy to access. Due to this wide availability, users can easily create a new document by copying and pasting. Plagiarism occurs when the content is copied without permission or citation. This paper introduces a plagiarism detection technique based on the Semantic Role Labeling (SRL). The technique analyses and compares text based on the semantic allocation for each term inside the sentence. SRL is superior in generating arguments for each sentence semantically. In addition, experimental results on PAN-PC-09 data sets showed that our method outperforms the modern methods for plagiarism detection in terms of Recall, Precision and F-measure.
Fuzzy genetic semantic based text summarization Ladda Suanmali, Naomie Salim, Mohammed Salem Binwahlan Proceedings IEEE 9th International Conference on Dependable Autonomic and Secure Computing Dasc 2011, 2011 Automatic text summarization is a data reduction process to exclude unnecessary details and present important information in a shorter version. One way to summarize document is by extracting important sentences in the document. To select suitable sentences, a numerical rank is assigned to each sentence based on a sentence scoring approach. Highly ranked sentences are used for the summary. This paper proposed an automatic text summarization approach based on sentence extraction using fuzzy logic, genetic algorithm, semantic role labeling and their combinations to generate high quality summaries. This study explored the benefits of the genetic algorithm in the optimization problem in for feature selection during the training phase and adjusts feature weights during the testing phase. Fuzzy IF-THEN rules were used to balance the weights between important and unimportant features. Conventional extraction methods cannot capture semantic relations between concepts in a text. Therefore, this research investigates the use of the semantic role labeling to capture the semantic contents in sentences and incorporate it into the summarization method. This paper is evaluated in terms of performance using ROUGE toolkit. Experimental results showed that the summaries produced by the proposed approaches are better than other approaches produced by Microsoft Word 2007, Copernic Summarizer, and MANYASPECTS summarizers.

The development of cross-language plagiarism detection tool utilising fuzzy swarm-based summarisation Salha Alzahrani, Naomie Salim, Chow Kok Kent, Mohammed Salem Binwahlan, Ladda Suanmali Proceedings of the 2010 10th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications Isda 10, 2010 This work presents the design and development of a web-based system that supports cross-language similarity analysis and plagiarism detection. A suspicious document dq in a language Lq is to be submitted to the system via a PHP web-based interface. The system will accept the text through either uploading or pasting it directly to a text-area. In order to lighten large texts and provide an ideal set of queries, we introduce the idea of query document reduction via summarisation. Our proposed system utilised a fuzzy swarm-based summarisation tool originally built in Java. Then, the summary is used as a query to find similar web resources in languages Lx other than Lq via a dictionary-based translation. Thereafter, a detailed similarity analysis across the languages Lq and Lx is performed and friendly report of results is produced. Such report has global similarity score on the whole document, which assures high flexibility of utilisation.
