We report findings of the TSAR-2022 shared task on multilingual lexical
simplification, organized as part of the Workshop on Text Simplification,
Accessibility, and Readability TSAR-2022 held in conjunction with EMNLP 2022.
The task called the Natural Language Processing research community to
contribute with methods to advance the state of the art in multilingual lexical
simplification for English, Portuguese, and Spanish. A total of 14 teams
submitted the results of their lexical simplification systems for the provided
test data. Results of the shared task indicate new benchmarks in Lexical
Simplification with English lexical simplification quantitative results
noticeably higher than those obtained for Spanish and (Brazilian) Portuguese.
