Researchers have introduced E-CONAN, a new set of benchmarks designed to improve natural language inference capabilities for the Arabic language. The benchmarks consist of two datasets, E-CONAN-2 and E-CONAN-3, created from a diverse mix of automatically translated, human-validated, hand-crafted, and news-headline-based sentence pairs. These benchmarks were used to evaluate nine state-of-the-art multilingual pre-trained models and five large language models in a zero-shot classification setting, with results indicating E-CONAN's value for assessing and fine-tuning model generalization.
