Abstract
The use of offensive language in user-generated content is a serious problem that needs to be addressed with the latest technology. The field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) can support the automatic detection of offensive language. In this survey, we review previous NLP studies that cover Arabic offensive language detection. This survey investigates the state-of-the-art in offensive language detection for the Arabic language, providing a structured overview of previous approaches, including core techniques, tools, resources, methods, and main features used. This work also discusses the limitations and gaps of the previous studies. Findings from this survey emphasize the importance of investing further effort in detecting Arabic offensive language, including the development of benchmark resources and the invention of novel preprocessing and feature extraction techniques.
