Neural Generation for Czech: Data and Baselines (2019, neutral): “The procedural SimpleNLG realizer (Gatt and Reiter, 2009) has also been ported into multiple languages (Bollmann, 2011; Vaudry and Lapalme, 2013; de Oliveira and Sripada, 2014; Mazzei et al., 2016; Ramos-Soto et al., 2017; Cascallar-Fuentes et al., 2018; Chen et al., 2018; de Jong and Theune, 2018).”
Survey of the State of the Art in Natural Language Generation: Core tasks, applications and evaluation (2017, background): “…or ‘off the shelf’ modules (e.g., Kasper, 1989), something which has motivated the development of simple realisation engines which provide syntax and morphology apis, but leave choice-making up to the developer(Gatt et al., 2009; Vaudry & Lapalme, 2013; Bollmann, 2011; de Oliveira & Sripada, 2014).”

SimpleNLG-ZH: a Linguistic Realisation Engine for Mandarin (2018, background): “To date, the original English SimpleNLG has been adapted to German (Bollmann, 2011), French (Vaudry and Lapalme, 2013), Portuguese (De Oliveira and Sripada, 2014), Italian (Mazzei et al., 2016), Spanish (Soto et al., 2017), Filipino (Ong et al., 2011) and Telugu (Dokkara et al., 2015).”
Adapting SimpleNLG for Brazilian Portuguese realisation (2014, methodology): “This paper describes the ongoing implementation and the current coverage of SimpleNLG-BP, an adaptation of SimpleNLG-EnFr (Vaudry and Lapalme, 2013) for Brazilian Portuguese.”
SimpleNLG-IT: adapting SimpleNLG to Italian (2016, methodology): “We adopted the same strategy of (Vaudry and Lapalme, 2013): we built by hand the closed part of the Italian lexicon and we built automatically the open part by using available resources.”
Enriching the WebNLG corpus (2018, background): “…theme in NLG research community – see, for instance, the increased availability of SimpleNLG tools to languages other than English (Mazzei et al., 2016; Bollmann, 2011; Vaudry and Lapalme, 2013; Ramos-Soto et al., 2017) and the recent Multilingual Surface Real-ization task (Mille et al., 2018).”
