objects can be assertions, beliefs, facts, or eventualities. Discourse connectives and their arguments are assigned attribution-related features (Prasad et al. 2006) such as SOURCE (writer, other, arbitrary), TYPE (reflecting the nature of the relation between the agent and the abstract object), SCOPAL POLARITY of attribution, and DETERMINACY (indicating the presence of contexts canceling the e...

this study tries to show that how viewpoint functions in discourse. as it will be clarified, it is highly related to the intention of the speaker/writer, and as a result, the orientation (s)he adopts in the discourse. deictic markers function as discourse markers to fix and anchor time, place, agent, and other discursive elements. in this way, the viewpoint adopted by the enunciator/utterer is ...

As already mentioned, most machine translation systems perform translation sentence by sentence. But even in the case of paragraph translation, the discourse structure of the target text tends to be identical to that of the source text. However, the sublanguage discourse structures may differ across the different languages, and thus a translated text which assumes the same discourse structure a...

We propose a simple and effective metric for automatically evaluating discourse coherence of a text using the outputs of a coreference resolution model. According to the idea that a writer tends to appropriately utilise coreference relations when writing a coherent text, we introduce a metric of discourse coherence based on automatically identified coreference relations. We empirically evaluate...

In Chinese text, discourse connectives constitute a major linguistic device available for a writer to explicitly indicate the structure of a discourse. This set of discourse connectives, consisting of a few hundred entries in modern Chinese, is relatively stable and domain independent. In a recently published paper [T'sou 1996], a computational procedure was introduced to generate the abstract ...

To understand a discourse the reader needs to recover the relations between the discourse elements as intended by the writer Writers can and very often do help the reader along by providing explicit lexical signals of the intended discourse relations through the use of lexicalised discourse markers In this paper we present a novel approach for generating texts containing multiple embedded rheto...
