The dataset uses the same 2,359 sentences from [TurkCorpus]( https://github.com/cocoxu/simplification/) [(Xu et al., 2016)](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/Q16-1029.pdf) and each sentence is associated with 10 crowdsourced simplifications. Unlike previous simplification datasets, which contain a single transformation (e.g., lexical paraphrasing in TurkCorpus or sentence\nsplitting in [HSplit](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/D18-1081.pdf)), the simplifications in ASSET encompass a variety of rewriting transformations.\n\nTURKCorpus is a high quality simplification dataset where each source (not simple) sentence is associated with 8 human-written simplifications that focus on lexical paraphrasing. It is one of the two evaluation datasets for the text simplification task in GEM. It acts as the validation and test set for paraphrasing-based simplification that does not involve sentence splitting and deletion.\n",

It uses the same input sentences as the [TurkCorpus](https://github.com/cocoxu/simplification/) dataset from [(Xu et al., 2016)](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/Q16-1029.pdf). The 2,359 input sentences of TurkCorpus are a sample of \"standard\" (not simple) sentences from the [Parallel Wikipedia Simplification (PWKP)](https://www.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/ukp/research_6/data/sentence_simplification/simple_complex_sentence_pairs/index.en.jsp) dataset [(Zhu et al., 2010)](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/C10-1152.pdf), which come from the August 22, 2009 version of Wikipedia. The sentences of TurkCorpus were chosen to be of similar length [(Xu et al., 2016)](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/Q16-1029.pdf). No further information is provided on the sampling strategy.\n\nThe TurkCorpus dataset was developed in order to overcome some of the problems with sentence pairs from Standard and Simple Wikipedia: a large fraction of sentences were misaligned, or not actually simpler [(Xu et al., 2016)](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/Q16-1029.pdf). However, TurkCorpus mainly focused on *lexical paraphrasing*, and so cannot be used to evaluate simplifications involving *compression* (deletion) or *sentence splitting*. HSplit [(Sulem et al., 2018)](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/D18-1081.pdf), on the other hand, can only be used to evaluate sentence splitting. The reference sentences in ASSET include a wider variety of sentence rewriting strategies, combining splitting, compression and paraphrasing. Annotators were given examples of each kind of transformation individually, as well as all three transformations used at once, but were allowed to decide which transformations to use for any given sentence.\n\nAn example illustrating the differences between TurkCorpus, HSplit and ASSET is given below:\n\n> **Original:** He settled in London, devoting himself chiefly to practical teaching.\n>\n> **TurkCorpus:** He rooted in London, devoting himself mainly to practical teaching.\n>\n> **HSplit:** He settled in London.
