This paper describes our submissions to the WojoodNER shared task organized during the first ArabicNLP conference. We participated in the two proposed sub-tasks of flat and nested Named Entity Recognition (NER). Our systems were ranked first over eight and third over eleven in the Nested NER and Flat NER, respectively. All our primary submissions are based on DiffusionNER models (Shen et al., 2023), where the NER task is formulated as a boundary-denoising diffusion process. Experiments on nested WojoodNER achieves the best results with a micro F1-score of 93.73%. For the flat sub-task, our primary system was the third-best system, with a micro F1-score of 91.92%.
