  abstract  = {We present a mobile app that provides a reading environment for learners of
	Chinese as a foreign language.              The app includes a text database that
	offers
	over 500K articles from Chinese Wikipedia.  These articles have been
	word-segmented; each word is linked to its entry in a Chinese-English
	dictionary, and to automatically-generated review exercises.  The app estimates
	the reading proficiency of the user based on a ``to-learn'' list of vocabulary
	items.              It automatically constructs and maintains this list by tracking
	the
	user's dictionary lookup behavior and performance in review exercises.             
	When a
	user searches for articles to read, search results are filtered such that the
	proportion of unknown words does not exceed a user-specified threshold.},
