Papers with prediction of pairwise relative text difficulty
Enhancing Automatic Readability Assessment with Pre-training and Soft Labels for Ordinal Regression (2022.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing models do not exploit ordinal nature of difficulty grades and make little effort for initialization to facilitate fine-tuning. |
| Approach: | They propose a readability assessment task that assigns a difficulty grade to a text . they use ordinal regression and pairwise relative text difficulty to train the model . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms competitive neural models and statistical classifiers on most datasets. |
