Resumo

Este articulo presenta CLEARS, una tarea compartida organizada en el marco de la campana de evaluación de sistemas de Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural en español y otras lenguas ibéricas, IberLEF 2025. CLEARS tiene como objetivo investigar y desarrollar técnicas automáticas para adaptar textos en español a lenguaje claro y lectura fácil. Se proponen dos subtareas, la primera centrada en adaptar textos a lenguaje claro y la segunda en obtener textos en lectura fácil. En CLEARS participaron cuatro grupos en la Subtarea 1 y cinco grupos en la Subtarea 2. Cada equipo presentó sus resultados y enfoques, los cuales se muestran a continuación.
