Discourse relations and evaluation.
Corpora. 2016. P. 169–190.
n this paper, we examine the role of discourse relations (relations between propositions) in the interpretation of evaluative or opinion words. Through a combination of Rhetorical Structure Theory (or RST; Mann and Thompson, 1988) and Appraisal Theory (Martin and White, 2005), we analyse how different discourse relations modify the evaluative content of opinion words, and what impact the nucleus–satellite structure in RST has on the evaluation. We conduct a corpus study, examining and annotating over 3,000 evaluative words in fifty movie reviews in the SFU Review Corpus (Taboada, 2008) with respect to five parameters: word category (noun, verb, adjective or adverb), prior polarity (positive, negative or neutral), RST structure (both nucleus–satellite status and relation type) and change of polarity as a result of being part of a discourse relation (Intensify, Downtone, Reversal or No Change). Results show that relations such as Concession, Elaboration, Evaluation, Evidence and Restatement most frequently intensify the polarity of opinion words, although the majority of evaluative words do not undergo changes in their polarity related to the type of relation that they are a part of. We also find that most opinion words (about 70 percent) are positioned in the nucleus, confirming a hypothesis based on the literature that nuclei are the most important units when extracting opinion automatically.

Formulaic language may help language learners in second language (L2) acquisition. However, interference with the first language (L1) can also cause errors in L2 production. The present paper explores the possibilities of detecting L1 Russian interference errors connected with phraseologisms in English learner texts with a fine-tuned Transformer-based neural network. Across a dataset of 3,600 ...

В статье исследуется история возникновения и эволюции идиомы от корки до корки. Мы использовали словарные данные и материалы НКРЯ и Google Books, чтобы установить примерное время появления данного выражения, а также предложить возможные объяснения его происхождения. Развитие конструкции от корки до корки связано с расширением ее сочетаемости: на этом пути можно выделить несколько этапов, которые ...

This article investigates the semantic field of ‘change’ in Persian from a lexical-typological perspective, applying the frame-based approach of the Moscow Lexical Typology Group. The study examines over 20 verbs related to this field, relying on data from dictionaries, corpora, and native speaker elicitation. In Persian, this semantic zone is primarily serviced by compound verbs. Our analysis reveals that the ...

The article demonstrates that Mandelstam's poem, "There are orioles in the
woods, and the length of vowels..." reveals an internal connection with
Khlebnikov's poem “О, dostoevskiymo running cloud!": one of the latter's key
images "shines through" the text of the former. Drawing on Mandelstam's
definitions that describe the reading process, the author reveals how this
connection might have arisen, whether ...

This article examines the syntax of constructions with aspectual verbs in Sakha (a.k.a. Yakut). Such constructions contain two predicates: a lexical verb which is a converb, and a finite aspectual verb that conveys some grammatical meaning. The syntax of such constructions has already been studied for some other Turkic languages. The pre‑ sent research examines ...

Despite a lot of interest for the factors influencing the choice of pronoun (reflexive or personal) with an antecedent in Russian, the role of the anaphotic relation—coreference or semantic binding—has been understudied, including disagreements as to the acceptability of particular data points.

Simulators for recommender systems are widely used for recommender systems performance evaluation and feedback loop effects analysis. Existing simulators often propose inflexible pipelines, are focused on narrow research tasks, or are not adapted to work with industrial large data volumes. To address these challenges, we developed the Sim4Rec simulation framework. The Sim4Rec models key aspects ...

In the rapidly evolving domain of Recommender Systems (RecSys), new algorithms frequently claim state-of-the-art performance based on evaluations over a limited set of arbitrarily selected datasets. However, this approach may fail to holistically reflect their effectiveness due to the significant impact of dataset characteristics on algorithm performance. Addressing this deficiency, this paper introduces a novel ...
