<p>Paper: Haralambous, Yannis, and Tian Tian. "<a href="https://aclanthology.org/2021.cnl-1.3.pdf">Tailoring a controlled language out of a corpus of maintenance reports</a>." Proceedings of the Seventh International Workshop on Controlled Natural Language (CNL 2020/21). 2021.</p>

<p>Abstract: We introduce a method for tailoring a controlled language out of a specialized language corpus, as well as for training the user to ensure a smooth transition between the specialized and the controlled language. Our method is based on the selection of maximal coverage syntax rules. The number of rules chosen is a naturalness vs. formality parameter of the controlled language. We introduce a training tool that displays segmentation into left-to-right maximal parsed sentences and allows utterance modification by the user until a complete parse is achieved. We have applied our method to a French corpus of maintenance reports of boilers in a thermal power station and provide coverage and segmentation results. </p>
