Python script to shorten a phrase or a sentence to a small word.
Run as python short.py 'Sentence to shorten'
The default run uses the whole word list but only 1 word guesses. Another interesting use case is to look for 2-word combinations using only the common words list.
python short.py 'Sentence to shorten' --word_list common --n_word_combination 2See all possible options with python short.py -h
Saw a paper that shortened "Data frEe multi-sourCe unsupervISed domain adaptatiON" to DECISION.
I thought it would be cool to automate this, so the script was born. One use-case is to come up with project names.
