Abstract

In this work, we present a scenario where contextual targeted paraphrasing of sub-sentential phrases is performed automatically to support the task of text revision. Candidate paraphrases are obtained from a preexisting repertoire and validated in the context of the original sentence using information derived from the Web. We report on experiments on French, where the original sentences to be rewritten are taken from a rewriting memory automatically extracted from the edit history of Wikipedia.
