Holistic Annotation of Discourse Coherence Quality in Noisy Essay Writing
In this paper, we describe a holistic annotation scheme for coherence quality that requires little expertise on the part of the human annotator; we also present computational systems for evaluating coherence quality in essays.

We show that Random Indexing can be used to locate documents in a semantic space as well as terms, but not by straightforwardly summing term vectors. Using a mathematical translation of the semantic space, we are able to use Random Indexing to assess textual...
متن کاملWriting Annotation Instructions

Our goal in developing the annotation instructions was that they can be used reliably, after a reasonable amount of training, by taggers who are non-experts but who have g...

We show that by selecting event pairs based on discourse structure and by modifying the pre-existent temporal classification scheme to fit the data better, we significantly improve inter-annotator agreement, as well as broaden the coverage of the task. We also present analysis of the current temporal classification scheme and ...
