Abstract:
|
Lexical Simplification is the task of reducing
the lexical complexity of textual
documents by replacing difficult words
with easier to read (or understand) expressions
while preserving the original meaning.
The development of robust pipelined
multilingual architectures able to adapt to
new languages is of paramount importance
in lexical simplification. This paper describes
and evaluates a modular hybrid
linguistic-statistical Lexical Simplifier that
deals with the four major Ibero-Romance
Languages: Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan,
and Galician. The architecture of
the system is the same for the four languages
addressed, only the language resources
used during simplification are language
specific. |
