Exploring language technologies to provide support to WCAG 2.0 and E2R guidelines
Part of citizenship faces accessibility barriers when they read and understand texts containing long sentences, unusual words, complex linguistic structures, etc. Readability and understanding should be considered when texts are created. In order to make online texts more accessible, there are initiatives as Easy-to-Read (E2R) and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, however they do not cover every need that arises in this regard. In addition to accessibility guidelines and E2R rules, technology supporting the authorship of texts is required because the transformation of a text to an easier text to read and understandable is impossible. As a solution to the need to have (semi)automatic support to comply with accessibility and E2R guidelines, the application of Natural Language Processing (NLP) resources and methods is proposed. In this paper, E2R guidelines are introduced and a subset of WCAG guidelines regarding readability and understanding has been obtained. In addition, a review on NLP technology concerning accessibility is given. To illustrate this proposal for improving accessibility using PLN approaches, a use case for simplifying drug package leaflets in Spanish is introduced.
