A New Formula for Vietnamese Text Readability Assessment
Text readability has an important role in text drafting and document selecting. Most studies on the readability of the text have been made long ago for English and some common languages. There are few researches about Vietnamese text readability and most of them are performed more than three decades ago on very small corpora. In this paper, we build a new and larger corpus and use it to create a newer formula to predict the difficulty of Vietnamese text. The experimental results show that the new formula can predict the readability of Vietnamese documents with over 80% accuracy.
