Abstract
In this paper, we present a description of our experiments on country-level Arabic dialect identification. A comparison study between a set of classifiers has been carried out. The best results were achieved using the Linear Support Vector Classification (LSVC) model by applying a Random Over Sampling (ROS) process yielding an F1-score of 18.74% in the post-evaluation phase. In the evaluation phase, our best submitted system has achieved an F1-score of 18.27%, very close to the average F1-score (18.80%) obtained for all the submitted systems.- Anthology ID:
