PuDyDG at AISA-ArabicFC: Decomposed Fine-Tuning with Function-Centric Few-Shot Augmentation for Arabic Function Calling

Duy Dang Phu, Thìn Đặng Văn


Abstract
Tool calling has become increasingly important for agentic systems, but remains challenging in multilingual settings, particularly for Arabic. We present our system for the AISA-ArabicFC shared task at ArabicNLP 2026. Our approach combines decomposed multi-task fine-tuning, function-centric few-shot augmentation, and hybrid schema-aware inference. On the development set, our system achieves a function-name accuracy of 1.000 and a normalized argument exact match of 0.858. On the blind test set, the released baseline re-scored with the final scorer obtains a Track A score of 0.8000, compared with 0.9111 for our submission. Our system achieves a function-name accuracy of 0.9973 and an argument exact match score of 0.8536 on this set, ranking seventh in Track A. Our solution is released in the GitHub repository[<https://github.com/phud774/PuDyDG-AISA-ArabicNLP>].
