The goal of the CWI shared task of 2018 is to predict which words challenge non-native speakers based on the annotations collected from both native and non-native speakers. A labeled training set is provided where words in context were annotated regarding their complexity. Training and test data belong to the same language. The task consists in labeling the target test words in context as complex (1) or simple (0).
