<p>I don't think there is the name used by everyone but, for example, in this paper <a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1805.01035" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://arxiv.org/pdf/1805.01035</a> they call it split-and-rephrase (in several other papers this term is used too). </p>
Name of task - splitting up complex sentences?
<p>I've go a question about the name of an NLP task - Splitting up a complex sentence into simple ones.
For example, if I have this sentence:</p>

<p>"Input t on the username input box and password input box."</p>

<p>I'd like to split this sentence into simpler sentences:</p>

<p>"Input t on the username input box"
"Input t on the password input box"</p>

<p>What would this problem be called? I've tried clause extraction <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39320015/how-to-split-an-nlp-parse-tree-to-clauses-independent-and-subordinate">here</a> but I don't want clauses, but rather, fully formed sentences. I've also tried 'sentence simplification' but it exceeds what I'm trying to do, with its lexical simplification and all. </p>

<p>Thanks </p>
