What neural networks know about linguistic complexity

Linguistic complexity is a complex phenomenon, as it manifests itself on different levels (complexity of texts to sentences to words to subword units), through different features and also via different tasks (specific needs of other kinds of audiences).

Appendix 1. Linguistic features

The order of the linguistic features and their codes are taken from (Biber 1988). The conditions for detecting the features for English replicate the published procedures from (Biber 1988), many of them are expressed via lists of lexical items or via POS annotations, which in this study are provided by UDPIPE (Straka & Strakova 2017). The Russian features are either based on translating the English word lists or on using identical or functionally similar constructions.
