Sentiment Analysis for Multilingual Datasets Using Transformers
(university of bordj bou arreridj, 2026) Brahimi Zineb; - Khramsia Khawla; Dahmouni Oumaima
The rapid proliferation of social media platforms has generated an unprecedented volume of User-Generated Content (UGC). This vast and diverse data landscape renders many existing Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools fundamentally inadequate for performing accurate automated sentiment analysis across different contexts. Consequently, this dissertation addresses this critical research gap by introducing three complementary contributions. First, we construct and annotate a novel multilingual sentiment dataset collected from YouTube, focusing on major events that attracted global attention and explicitly designed to capture the complex nature of social media. Second, we conduct a systematic benchmarking study of state-of-the-art Transformer-based pre-trained language models, including mBERT, XLM-R, and DziriBERT, to identify the architecture most robust to the specificities of Algerian dialectal text. Third, we design and deploy a functional Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform integrating the best-performing model, offering real-time sentiment analysis via a web interface accessible to researchers and businesses.

SakinaPath: A DBT-InformedWell-being Application for Algerian Adults
(university of bordj bou arreridj, 2026) Ouarkoub Meriem; Benzeghiba Wail; Bendiab Kamel Lotfi Islam; Miloudi Mahdi
Mental health disorders impose a growing burden in Algeria, while access to care remains limited by shortages of professionals, stigma, geographic barriers, and a multilingual landscape that existing digital tools rarely address. No publicly identified mobile application offers Algerian adults structured, self-guided mental health support grounded in an evidence-based framework and adapted to local linguistic and privacy needs. This dissertation addresses that gap through the design, implementation, and evaluation planning of SakinaPath, a cross-platform mobile mental health application based on the principles of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). A review of existing international and regional solutions identified three recurring limitations — linguistic inaccessibility, insufficient privacy protection, and a lack of structured self-guided skills training — each informing a specific design decision. The resulting prototype follows a three-tier architecture: a Flutter cross-platform client, a Supabase PostgreSQL backend secured through Row-Level Security policies, and two external integrations (Groq API for a non-clinical AI recommender; Chargily Pay for DZD payment processing). It implements three DBT modules (mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation), fourteen psychometric assessments, a safetycritical SOS pathway, a moderated peer community, and a verified psychiatrist booking and remote consultation system, supported by a React-based administration panel. The interface supports Arabic, French, and English, with right-to-left layout for Arabic. This thesis contributes a contextualised requirements analysis for DBT-based digital mental health tools in Algeria and a privacy-first architecture centered on database-level access control, demonstrated through a functional Master’s-level prototype. Limitations include the absence of the interpersonal effectiveness DBT module, reliance on LLM-based crisis detection, the lack of empirical evaluation results, and unresolved data residency considerations.

Design and Development of an Intelligent Student Assistant Application
(university of bordj bou arreridj, 2026) Ben Merrouche Aymen; Hammani Abdelhak; Lakhal Zakariya
TalebDZ is an AI-powered assistant chatbot designed to support students at Algerian universities. The application addresses a recurring problem faced by university students: the difficulty of accessing accurate and timely information regarding administrative procedures, academic regulations, orientation, and university services. TalebDZ integrates a Retrieval-Augmented Generation pipeline built on Meta LLaMA 3.3 70B, accessed via the OpenRouter API, with a ChromaDB vector database and a LangChain orchestration layer to deliver grounded, contextually relevant responses. The system supports four languages (Modern Standard Arabic, Algerian Darija, English and French) reflecting the multilingual reality of Algerian higher education. A Flutter-based mobile application provides the user interface, backed by a Flask REST API and a Supabase PostgreSQL database for authentication and persistence. Evaluation results demonstrate a RAG accuracy of 93.3% across a 15-question multilingual benchmark and a mean user satisfaction score of 4.10 out of 5 across 10 participants, confirming the system's potential as a practical academic support tool
