    Este trabajo tiene como objetivo facilitar la comprensión y legibilidad de textos en español en un dominio genérico a través del diseño de un sistema de simplificación léxica que da soporte a la tarea de Complex Word Identification (CWI) y elección de sustituto más sencillo. Considerando la limitación de recursos disponibles en español, exploramos diferentes características que nos permitan discernir entre una palabra compleja y una simple. Algunas de estas características son obtenidas de lectura fácil. La evaluación muestra buenos resultados al obtener 0.7497 en F1-score en la tarea de CWI con el dataset de la competición de BEA Workshop 2018.

    This work aims to facilitate the understanding and readability of Spanish texts in a generic domain through the design of a lexical simplification system that provides support to the task of Complex Word Identification (CWI) and selection of a simpler substitute. Considering the limited resources available in Spanish, we explore different features that allow us to discern between a complex word and a simpler one. Some of these features are obtained from easy-to-read resources. The evaluation shows good results by obtaining an F1-Score of 0.7497 on the CWI Task with the BEA Workshop 2018 competition’s dataset. |
