Simple Sentences That Are Hard to Decide
It was considered to be “typical for first order theories” that a restriction to sentences with only a limited number of quantilier alternations leads to an exponential decrease of complexity. Using domino games, which were treated in a previous paper to describe computations of alternating Turing machines, we prove that this is not always true. We present a list of theories, all of them decida...
متن کاملSimple, readable sub-sentences
We present experiments using a new unsupervised approach to automatic text simplification, which builds on sampling and ranking via a loss function informed by readability research. The main idea is that a loss function can distinguish good simplification candidates among randomly sampled sub-sentences of the input sentence. Our approach is rated as equally grammatical and beginner reader appro...
