Constraint-based Analysis of Discourse Structure

چکیده
Recent works in the NLP community show an increasing interest for the analysis of discourse structure, leading to a variety of models and applications. We claim that a constraint-based approach allows a high level, abstract, description of various discourse structures, together with the design of an operative framework for generic analysis methods. The CDML formalism (Constraint-based Discourse Modelling Language) presented in this paper is devoted to these tasks.
