An Architecture for a Text Simplification System
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a pipelined architecture for a text simplification system and describe our implementation of the three stages— analysis, transformation and regeneration. Our architecture allows each component to be developed and evaluated independently. We lay particular emphasis on the discourse level aspects of syntactic simplification as these are crucial to the process and have not been dealt with by previous research in the field. These aspects include generating referring expressions, deciding determiners, deciding sentence order and preserving rhetorical and anaphoric structure.

This paper addresses the problem of automatic text simplification. Automatic text simplifications aims at reducing the reading difficulty for people with cognitive disability, among other target groups. We describe an automatic text simplification system for Spanish which combines a rule based core module with a statistical support module that controls the application of rules in the wrong cont...
متن کاملNatural language processing for social inclusion: a text simplification architecture for different literacy levels
Text simplification is a research area of Natural Language Processing, whose goal is to maximize text comprehension through simplification of its linguistic structure. This paper presents our approach for Brazilian Portuguese text simplification. As people have different literacy levels, we take that into account when generating simplified texts. We propose an architecture for text simplificati...
متن کاملWriting for Language-Impaired Readers
This paper advocates an approach whereby the needs of language-impaired readers are taken into account at the stage of text authoring by means of NLP integration. In our proposed system architecture, a simplification module produces candidate simplified rephrasings that the author of the text can accept or edit. This article describes the syntactic simplification module which has been partly im...
متن کاملA Tool for Automatic Simplification of Swedish Texts
We present a rule based automatic text simplification tool for Swedish. The tool is designed to facilitate experimentation with various simplification techniques. The architecture of the tool is inspired by and partly built on a previous text simplification tool for Swedish, CogFLUX. New functionality, new operation types, and new simplification operations were added.
متن کاملNatural Language Processing for Improving Textual Accessibility ( NLP 4 ITA ) Workshop Programme
Analysis of long sentences are source of problems in advanced applications such as machine translation. With the aim of solving these problems in advanced applications, we have analysed long sentences of two corpora written in Standard Basque in order to make syntactic simplification. The result of this analysis leads us to design a proposal to produce shorter sentences out of long ones. In ord...
