On the Ethical Considerations of Text Simplification
Ninth Workshop on Speech and Language Processing for Assistive Technologies (SLPAT-2022), 2022 This paper outlines the ethical implications of text simplification within the framework of assistive systems. We argue that a distinction should be made between the technologies that perform text simplification and the realisation of these in assistive technologies.

Text Simplification of Patent Documents [PDF]
, 2018 This paper represents an automatic text simplification system for patent documents. The simplification system is embedded in the broader context of an information retrieval system which extracts IDM related knowledge from patent documents. Extracting elements of IDM ontology from patents involves training machine-learning model. However, an accuracy of

Motivations and methods for text simplification [PDF]
Proceedings of the 16th conference on Computational linguistics -, 1996 Long and complicated sentences prove to be a stumbling block for current systems relying on NL input. These systems stand to gain from methods that syntactically simplify such sentences. To simplify a sentence, we need an idea of the structure of the sentence, to identify the components to be separated out.

An Analysis of Crowdsourced Text Simplifications [PDF]
Proceedings of the 3rd Workshop on Predicting and Improving Text Readability for Target Reader Populations (PITR), 2014 We present a study on the text simplification operations undertaken collaboratively by Simple English Wikipedia contributors. The aim is to understand whether a complex-simple parallel corpus involving this version of Wikipedia is appropriate as data source to induce simplification rules, and whether we can automatically categorise the different ...

The (Un)Suitability of Automatic Evaluation Metrics for Text Simplification
Computational Linguistics, 2021 In order to simplify sentences, several rewriting operations can be performed, such as replacing complex words per simpler synonyms, deleting unnecessary information, and splitting long sentences.

Elaborative Simplification: Content Addition and Explanation Generation in Text Simplification [PDF]
Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL-IJCNLP 2021, 2021 Much of modern-day text simplification research focuses on sentence-level simplification, transforming original, more complex sentences into simplified versions. However, adding content can often be useful when difficult concepts and reasoning need to be explained.

Impact of the Text Simplification on Understanding
, 2022 The reduction of the linguistic complexity of medical texts to make them more understandable to a larger population is an important task. The simplification of texts involves several steps, among which our study focuses on the definition of complex constructions and on study of the impact of the simplification. For this study, we selected 20 texts from

On Operations in Automatic Text Simplification
, 2023 This paper explores the literature of automatic text simplification (ATS) centered on the notion of operations. Operations are the processes of applying certain modifications to a given text in order to transform it.
