Text simplification (TS) reduces the complexity of the text to improve its readability and understandability, while possibly retaining its original information content. Over time, TS has become an essential tool in helping those with low literacy levels, non-native learners, and those struggling with various types of reading comprehension problems. In addition, it is used in a preprocessing stage to enhance other NLP tasks. This survey presents an extensive study of current research studies in the field of TS, as well as covering resources, corpora, and evaluation methods that have been used in those studies.

The Web

Over the past decades, information has been made available to a broad audience thanks to the availability of texts on the Web. However, understanding the wealth of information contained in texts can pose difficulties for a number of people including those with poor literacy, cognitive or linguistic impairment, or those with limited knowledge of the language of the text. Text simplification was initially conceived as a technology to simplify sentences so that they would be easier to process by natural-language processing components such as parsers. However, nowadays automatic text simplification is conceived as a technology to transform a text into an equivalent which is easier to read and to understand by a target user. Text simplification concerns both the modification of the vocabulary of the text (lexical simplification) and the modification of the structure of the sentences (syntactic simplification). In this chapter, after briefly introducing the topic of text readability, we give an overview of past and recent methods to address these two problems. We also describe simplification applications and full systems also outline language resources and evaluation approaches.
