In this paper authors examine the task of sentence simplification which aims to reduce the reading complexity of a sentence by incorporating more accessible vocabulary and sentence structure. Authors introduce a new data set that pairs [[English Wikipedia]] with Simple English [[Wikipedia]] and is orders of magnitude larger than any previously examined for sentence simplification. The data contains the full range of simplification operations including rewording, reordering, insertion and deletion. Authors provide an analysis of this corpus as well as preliminary results using a phrase-based translation approach for simplification.
