[P] Meeting MILES - My simple lexical text simplifier using Multilingual BERT

  MILES is a multilingual text simplifier inspired by LSBert - A BERT-based lexical simplification approach proposed in 2018. Unlike LSBert, MILES uses the bert-base-multilingual-uncased model, as well as simple language-agnostic approaches to complex word identification (CWI) and candidate ranking.

Recently, I started working on another simplifier called MILES. MILES is loosely inspired by LSBert — another lexical simplifier that uses the large BERT uncased model to find substitutions for complex words. MILES works in a very similar way, however, it instead makes use of the multilingual BERT model, as well as fully language-agnostic methods for complex word identification and substitution ranking. As a result, MILES can (in theory) support a multitude of different languages. The GitHub repository can be found here, and below I've included an example text simplified by MILES, as well as an overview of the framework.
