SZED details Arabic hateful meme detection approach for ArGuard 2026 tasks

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers from SZED have detailed their approach for the ArGuard 2026 shared tasks focused on detecting Arabic hateful memes. Their submission for binary classification (A1) combined MARBERTv2 and CLIP ViT-L/14 embeddings, achieving a macro-F1 score of 0.7597. For the fine-grained multi-label tagging task (A2), they employed a multi-task label-attention architecture, resulting in an average F1 score of 0.3142 across 10 classes. AI
