Text-to-Pictogram Summarization for Augmentative and Alternative Communication

Many people suffer from language disorders that affect their communicative capabilities. Augmentative and alternative communication devices assist learning process through graphical representation of common words. In this article, we present a complete text-to-pictogram system able to simplify complex texts and ease its comprehension with pictograms.
