Text Simplification --------Part 2

          I was out shopping with mom when my phone started ringing. It was Bhuvan who frantically called me to say there was going to be another round of project review by our HOD as he was not happy with the progress of 8th sem students. So we began preparing for Monday's review by running our script and debugging some errors. We got stuck since each module was on a different system. We had to integrate it on one system. We finally managed to do it until we realized in the morning of our ignorance and hence we ended up not showing the proper output to Sudarshan sir :P

          We somehow fall into our own trap because of our ignorance and this was no doubt one such day!! We had to somehow impress the reviewer with our presentation (where we have failed miserably). That was one of the reason we had a 7.30 AM meet today morning. We wanted to prepare well for the presentation. We noted down what to say and what NOT to say, hence we were all set to enter the room and give a great show until..........................

          We entered the room to find our HOD sitting alone. He took a sheet of paper which had our names and some phone number next to it. He asked all of us what our father's number is. We all told him until it was Bhuvan's turn. He started saying- "Sir, my dad's number starts with 9180..... and my mom's number starts with 9008....." and we all burst out laughing :D

     The review didn't go as expected and all of us were disappointed. But amidst all of these, there were such humorous moments which I can never forget. The reviewer was asking us our individual contributions. We found it difficult to explain to him what we actually did in the past 3 months working for 6 hours a day on an average. In the process most of us got restless and annoyed, so when it came to Bhuvan (again! ;) ) he took a book and started drawing lines like he was cutting a tree with a hacksaw blade. :D If I may quote Sir, it looked like he was drawing dark lines on the reviewer's face. He gave an input text which read- "Bhuvan abused Ambika" and the replacement was nill ( if u ask me, there was nothing to replace in that sentence) 

       We were all the more determined now to finish the tasks and show the output, so we went to the lab and started working. None of us spoke a word, we were concentrating that much! We did achieve something. Thanks to the review which happened, we became more efficient. 

  

       "We require the students to exhibit impeccable attitude" 

     was the input text which was not getting simplified in the review room. But now it shows-

        "We need the students to show perfect attitude"

Wow!! What an achievement.. It feels great to see the proper results :P

We were convinced that our package was working fine. If only we update our database (Markov matrix) and create a showy user interface , we would get better results. So its quite obvious what our next task should be. And here we are working on the same at 12 AM. 

We have a big party aligned for Saturday, so we are scheduled to complete our work by Friday.

Three cheers to Simplifiers!! :)

Hip hip........ (ok I can hear you guys shouting "hurray" :P )
