Studying the Readability of Scientific Papers

Thanasis Vergoulis

Presentation of the TPDL 2019 paper "A study on the readability of scientific texts".

We perform a longitudinal study about the readability of scientific texts on a large, multidisciplinary dataset. Furthermore, we measure the agreement of traditional readability metrics with expert judgements. Finally, we investigate the association of publication abstract readability with scientific impact.
