Simplifying Lexical Simplification: Do We Need Simplified Corpora?
Simplification of lexically complex texts, by replacing complex words with their simpler synonyms, helps non-native speakers, children, and language-impaired people understand text better. Recent lexical simplification methods rely on manually simplified corpora, which are expensive and time-consuming to build. We present an unsupervised approach to lexical simplification that makes use of the ...
متن کاملSimilarity-Based Alignment of Monolingual Corpora for Text Simplification Purposes
Comparable or parallel corpora are beneficial for many NLP tasks. The automatic collection of corpora enables large-scale resources, even for less-resourced languages, which in turn can be useful for deducing rules and patterns for text rewriting algorithms, a subtask of automatic text simplification. We present two methods for the alignment of Swedish easy-to-read text segments to text segment...
متن کاملJapanese News Simplification: Task Design, Data Set Construction, and Analysis of Simplified Text
In this paper we explore a Japanese news simplification task. We designed a Japanese news simplification task, constructed the data set for the task, and analyzed the manual simplification process. We designed the task focusing on sentence-level simplification, which is part of the process of manual simplification of Japanese news for non-native speakers. We constructed the data set consisting ...
متن کاملChallenging Choices for Text Simplification
In this paper we discuss particular choices we made during the development of a rule-based syntactic text simplification system. Such choices concern 1) how to deal with adverbial phrases in order to simplify sentences, and 2) the order in which to apply our set of simplification rules. Adverbial phrases have not been considered by previous work on text simplification, but have a considerable i...
متن کاملReadability Assessment for Text Simplification
We describe a readability assessment approach to support the process of text simplification for poor literacy readers. Given an input text, the goal is to predict its readability level, which corresponds to the literacy level that is expected from the target reader: rudimentary, basic or advanced. We complement features traditionally used for readability assessment with a number of new features...
