Simplification Using Paraphrases and Context-Based Lexical Substitution (N18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Lexical simplification involves identifying complex words or phrases that need to be simplified and suggesting simpler meaning-preserving substitutes. |
| Approach: | They propose a complex word identification model that exploits both lexical and contextual features and a word-embedding lexical substitution model to replace the detected complex words with simpler paraphrases. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model detects complex words with higher accuracy than other models and proposes good substitutes in context. |
