“…Sentence simplification is relevant in various real-world and downstream applications. For instance, it can benefit people with autism (Evans et al, 2014), dyslexia (Rello et al, 2013), and low-literacy skills (Watanabe et al, 2009). It can also serve as a preprocessing step to improve parsers (Chandrasekar et al, 1996) and summarization systems (Klebanov et al, 2004).…”

We present a novel iterative, edit-based approach to unsupervised sentence simplification. Our model is guided by a scoring function involving fluency, simplicity, and meaning preservation. Then, we iteratively perform word and phrase-level edits on the complex sentence. Compared with previous approaches, our model does not require a parallel training set, but is more controllable and interpretable. Experiments on Newsela and WikiLarge datasets show that our approach is nearly as effective as state-of-the-art supervised approaches. 1

“…Among the most recurrent recommendations made by the researchers, it is mentioned to make adjustments and modifications to websites such as font type and size, and provide the greatest number of customization options to users (10) . On the other hand, other studies recommended further assessments, as there was a certain proportion of participants where participants were missing or not adequate to give a more reliable result.…”

As the digital age advances, the internet has become a vital source of information and social participation; And with it, opportunities and benefits are manifested that can only be obtained through this single means. That is why it is essential to ensure that everyone can have equal access and opportunities when browsing the web. This review focuses on investigating the current state of knowledge of web accessibility for people with dyslexia. To achieve this, various computer solutions, design recommendations and study of web accessibility guidelines were reviewed, whose main objective is to improve the experience of users with dyslexia when browsing the web. A total of 120 original articles were extracted from the Scopus database, of which 22 studies met the inclusion criteria. The results showed that many of the web design customization options provided by these solutions were able to improve the web browsing and reading experience for people with dyslexia. In conclusion, this RSL allowed to identify a large number of software-based solutions and design recommendations to provide accessibility to people with dyslexia. Among the most important factors considered in these studies is the organization of content, typography and color contrast. Additionally, it is important to highlight the need to continue adjusting these proposals according to the different opinions and suggestions provided by the participants during the evaluations. And finally, it is recommended to obtain larger samples of participants so that, in this way, more representative results can be obtained during future research.

“…Sentence Simplification (SS) is a task of rephrasing a sentence into a new form that is easier to read and understand while retaining its meaning, which can be used for increasing accessibility for people with dyslexia (Rello et al, 2013), autism (Evans et al, 2014) or low-literacy skills (Watanabe et al, 2009).…”

Sentence Simplification aims to rephrase complex sentences into simpler sentences while retaining original meaning. Large Language models (LLMs) have demonstrated the ability to perform a variety of natural language processing tasks. However, it is not yet known whether LLMs can be served as a high-quality sentence simplification system. In this work, we empirically analyze the zero-/few-shot learning ability of LLMs by evaluating them on a number of benchmark test sets. Experimental results show LLMs outperform state-of-the-art sentence simplification methods, and are judged to be on a par with human annotators.
