This book summarizes the main topics at the 2019 workshop on Discourse Relation Parsing and Treebanking (DISRPT 2019). Co-located with NAACL 2019 in Minneapolis, the workshop’s aim was to bring together researchers working on corpus-based and computational approaches to discourse relations. In addition to an invited talk, eighteen papers outlined below were presented, four of which were submitted as part of a shared task on elementary discourse unit segmentation and connective detection.

Results of the first experimental evaluation of machine learning models trained on RuRSTreebank – first Russian corpus annotated within RST framework – are presented. Various lexical, quantitative, morphological, and semantic features were used. In rhetorical relation classification, the ensemble of CatBoost model with selected features and a linear SVM model provides the best score (macro ...

Работа посвящена пунктуации в предложениях с союзом "то есть". Данные Национального корпуса русского языка показываютрост частотности употребления этого коннектора в начале независимого предложения, после точки, несмотря на то, что такое употребление пока еще не закреплено в качестве кодифицированной нормы. В работе обсуждаются различия в употреблении "то есть" в середине и в начале предложения: возможность выражать ...

The identification of discourse connectives plays an important role in many discourse processing approaches. Among them, there are functional words usually enumerated in grammars (iz-za ‘due to’, blagodarya ‘thanks to’,) and not grammaticalized expressions (X vedet k Y ‘X leads to Y’, prichina etogo ‘the cause is’). Both types of connectives signal certain relations between discourse units. However, there are no ...

The paper is devoted to a corpus study of the Contrast relation between discourse units in Russian. It is based on the data of the Ru-RSTreebank annotated within the framework of the Rhetorical Structure theory [Mann, Thompson 1988]. The research question is what cue phrases and lexical and grammatical patterns are used to express the ...

The paper considers the task of automatic discourse parsing of texts in Russian. Discourse parsing is a well-known approach to capturing text semantics across boundaries of single sentences. Discourse annotation was found to be useful for various tasks including summarization, sentiment analysis, question-answering. Recently, the release of manually annotated Ru-RSTreebank corpus unlocked the possibility of ...

This chapter deals with segmentation, definition of reference units and annotation of the first corpus of Russian narratives by individuals with brain damage – people with aphasia and right hemisphere damage – and neurologically healthy speakers. We show that such parameters as pause length and intonation contours cannot be used for segmentation of impaired speech. ...

What is the best way to analyze spontaneous spoken language? In their search for the basic units of spoken language the authors of this volume opt for a corpus-driven approach. They share a strong conviction that prosodic structure is essential for the study of spoken discourse and each bring their own theoretical and practical experience ...

P. 747–761.
The purpose of the paper is to investigate cues signalling the relations between discourse units in Russian. Building a lexicon of discourse connectives is an indispensable subtask in many discourse parsing applications as well as an essential issue in theoretical researches of text coherence. In order to develop such a resource for Russian, we have ...
