Benchmarking Arabic--Russian Machine Translation: A Comparison of Fine-tuned NMT and Few-shot LLMs under Rich Morphology and Low Lexical Overlap

The study evaluates Arabic–Russian machine translation by comparing seven fine‑tuned neural machine translation (NMT) models with four few‑shot large language models (LLMs) on a new 15.47 million‑pair corpus split into 20k/5k/5k. Fine‑tuned NLLB‑1.3B achieves the best performance (BLEU 16.3, COMET 0.738), while the best few‑shot LLM, Aya‑Expanse 8B, scores only BLEU 1.7 on 500 sentences. Error analysis shows that low lexical overlap between Arabic and Russian is the main source of failures, and statistical tests confirm significant performance gaps between most models.

BEAR-Bench: A Bilingual Enterprise and Academic Reasoning Benchmark for Multimodal Models

BEAR-Bench is a bilingual benchmark for multimodal large language models, featuring 1,000 human‑annotated questions derived from text‑rich business and scientific documents in English and Russian. It evaluates 16 MLLMs, including Gemini 3.1 Pro and Qwen3.5‑397B, revealing significant performance gaps even for the strongest systems. The benchmark also serves to compare hallucination‑detection methods by analyzing model failures on these complex documents.
