LoRA, QLoRA, and full fine-tuning for Arabic medical question answering: a 22-condition study

Cluster Computing (Springer) · 2026

A controlled comparison of LoRA, QLoRA, and full fine-tuning across 4 open-weight models (Llama-3.1, Qwen2.5, Jais-2, Fanar) for Arabic medical QA, using a two-stage domain and task fine-tuning pipeline with multi-seed reruns, bootstrap confidence intervals, and McNemar significance testing.

What I research.

01

LLM adaptation & efficiency

Controlled studies of how large language models adapt: LoRA, QLoRA, and full fine-tuning under matched budgets, and architecture modifications that swap transformer FFN layers for learnable RBF/KAN variants across a 590M–13B scaling ladder.

02

Arabic & multilingual NLP

Arabic-language modelling where resources are scarce — fake news detection with contextualized embeddings, Arabic medical question answering, and bilingual Arabic/English retrieval systems.

03

Healthcare & clinical AI

Applied machine learning on clinical data: breast cancer detection methods, Alzheimer's detection from MRI, heart failure prediction, and COVID-19 outcome prediction.

Open to research collaboration.

Especially on LLM adaptation, Arabic and low-resource NLP, and clinical machine learning.
