Advancing arabic dialect detection with hybrid stacked transformer models by Hager Saleh, Hager Saleh, Hager Saleh, Abdulaziz AlMohimeed, Rasha Hassan, Mandour M. Ibrahim, Saeed Hamood Alsamhi, Moatamad Refaat Hassan, Sherif Mostafa

“…The stacking model compares various models, including long-short-term memory (LSTM), gated recurrent units (GRU), convolutional neural network (CNN), and two transformer models using different word embedding. The results show that the stacking model combination of two models archives outperformance over single-model approaches due to capturing a broader range of linguistic features, which leads to better generalization across different forms of Arabic. …”
