A Refined End-to-End Discourse Parser
نویسندگان
چکیده
The CoNLL-2015 shared task focuses on shallow discourse parsing, which takes a piece of newswire text as input and returns the discourse relations in a PDTB style. In this paper, we describe our discourse parser that participated in the shared task. We use 9 components to construct the whole parser to identify discourse connectives, label arguments and classify the sense of Explicit or Non-Explicit relations in free texts. Compared to previous discourse parser, new components and features are added in our system, which further improves the overall performance of the discourse parser. Our parser ranks the first on two test datasets, i.e., PDTB Section 23 and a blind test dataset.

Joint Syntacto-Discourse Parsing and the Syntacto-Discourse Treebank
Discourse parsing has long been treated as a stand-alone problem independent from constituency or dependency parsing. Most attempts at this problem are pipelined rather than end-to-end, sophisticated, and not self-contained: they assume goldstandard text segmentations (Elementary Discourse Units), and use external parsers for syntactic features. In this paper we propose the first end-to-end dis...
متن کاملUniTN End-to-End Discourse Parser for CoNLL 2016 Shared Task
Penn Discourse Treebank style discourse parsing is a composite task of detecting explicit and non-explicit discourse relations, their connective and argument spans, and assigning a sense to these relations. Due to the composite nature of the task, the end-to-end performance is greatly affected by the error propagation. This paper describes the end-to-end discourse parser for English submitted t...
متن کاملA PDTB-styled end-to-end discourse parser
We have developed a full discourse parser in the Penn Discourse Treebank (PDTB) style. Our trained parser first identifies all discourse and non-discourse relations, locates and labels their arguments, and then classifies their relation types. When appropriate, the attribution spans to these relations are also determined. We present a comprehensive evaluation from both component-wise and error-...
متن کاملTwo End-to-end Shallow Discourse Parsers for English and Chinese in CoNLL-2016 Shared Task
This paper describes our two discourse parsers (i.e., English discourse parser and Chinese discourse parser) for submission to CoNLL-2016 shared task on Shallow Discourse Parsing. For English discourse parser, we build two separate argument extractors for single sentence (SS) case, and adopt a convolutional neural network for Non-Explicit sense classification based on (Wang and Lan, 2015b)’s wo...
متن کاملThe UniTN Discourse Parser in CoNLL 2015 Shared Task: Token-level Sequence Labeling with Argument-specific Models
Penn Discourse Treebank style discourse parsing is a composite task of identifying discourse relations (explicit or nonexplicit), their connective and argument spans, and assigning a sense to these relations from the hierarchy of senses. In this paper we describe University of Trento parser submitted to CoNLL 2015 Shared Task on Shallow Discourse Parsing. The span detection tasks for explicit r...
