range of linguistic metrics, and for the estimation of the proficiency level

of texts according to the proficiency levels in Quadro de Referência para o
Ensino Português no Estrangeiro (QuaREPE). These metrics are not meant to be
used to replace the decisions they are aimed at supporting.

allows it to provide a useful service given its aim.
LX-Proficiency was developed by João Rodrigues, Francisco Costa and João Silva
under the coordination of António Branco, at NLX-Natural Language and Speech Group,
after being comissioned by Camões IP.
