The Effect of Reducing Lexical and Syntactic Complexity of Texts on Reading Comprehension
The present study investigated the effect of different types of text simplification (i.e., reducing the lexical and syntactic complexity of texts) on reading comprehension of English as a Foreign Language learners (EFL). Sixty female intermediate EFL learners from three intact classes in Tabarestan Language Institute in Tehran participated in the study. The intact classes were assigned to three...
متن کاملProblems in Current Text Simplification Research: New Data Can Help
Simple Wikipedia has dominated simplification research in the past 5 years. In this opinion paper, we argue that focusing on Wikipedia limits simplification research. We back up our arguments with corpus analysis and by highlighting statements that other researchers have made in the simplification literature. We introduce a new simplification dataset that is a significant improvement over Simpl...
متن کاملLexico-syntactic text simplification and compression with typed dependencies
We describe two systems for text simplification using typed dependency structures, one that performs lexical and syntactic simplification, and another that performs sentence compression optimised to satisfy global text constraints such as lexical density, the ratio of difficult words, and text length. We report a substantial evaluation that demonstrates the superiority of our systems, individua...
متن کاملToward creating simpler hydrological models: A LASSO subset selection approach
A formalised means of simplifying hydrological models concurrent with calibration is proposed for use when nonlinear models can be initially formulated as over-parameterised constrained absolute deviation regressions of nonlinear expressions. This provides a flexible modelling framework for approximation of nonlinear situations, while allowing the models to be amenable to algorithmic simplifica...
متن کاملText simplification using synchronous dependency grammars: Generalising automatically harvested rules
We present an approach to text simplification based on synchronous dependency grammars. Our main contributions in this work are (a) a study of how automatically derived lexical simplification rules can be generalised to enable their application in new contexts without introducing errors, and (b) an evaluation of our hybrid system that combines a large set of automatically acquired rules with a ...
متن کاملHigh-Quality Simplification with Generalized Pair Contractions
Because of its simplicity, the vertex pair contraction operation became very popular in mesh simplification. It allows for topological changes during simplification. In this paper we propose the use of the additional pair contractions of a vertex and an edge or a triangle and of two edges. The generalized contraction operations have several advantages over simple vertex pair contraction. They a...
