| "text": "Being able to recognize aspects of discourse structure has recently been shown to be relevant for tasks as diverse as machine translation, questionanswering, text summarization, and sentiment analysis. For many of these applications, a 'shallow' approach as embodied in the PDTB can be effective. It is shallow in the sense of making only very few commitments to an overall account of discourse structure and of having annotation decisions concentrate on the individual instances of discourse relations, rather than on their interactions. Previous work on this task has usually broken it down into a set of sub-problems, which are solved in a pipeline architecture (roughly: identify connectives, then arguments, then discourse senses; Lin et al., 2014) . While adopting a similar pipeline approach, the OPT discourse parser also builds on and extends a method that has previously achieved state-of-the-art results for the detection of speculation and negation (Velldal et al., 2012; Read et al., 2012) . It is interesting to observe that an abstractly similar pipeline-disambiguating trigger expressions and then resolving their in-text 'scope'-yields strong performance across linguistically diverse tasks. At the same time, the original system has been substantially augmented for discourse parsing as outlined below. There is no closely corresponding sub-problem to assigning discourse senses in the analysis of negation and speculation; thus, our sense classifier described has been developed specifically for OPT.", | |

| "text": "Explicit Connectives Our classifier for detecting explicit discourse connectives extends the work by Velldal et al. (2012) for identifying expressions of speculation and negation. The approach treats the set of connectives observed in the training data as a closed class, and 'only' attempts to disambiguate occurrences of these token sequences in new data. Connectives can be single-or multitoken sequences (e.g. 'as' vs. 'as long as'). In cases \u00a73 \u00a75 \u00a74 of overlapping connective candidates, OPT deterministically chooses the longest sequence. The Shared Task defines a notion of heads in complex connectives, for example just the final token in 'shortly after'. As evaluation is in terms of matching connective heads only, these are the unit of disambiguation in OPT. Disambiguation is performed as point-wise ('per-connective') classification using the support vector machine implementation of the SVM light toolkit (Joachims, 1999) . Tuning of feature configurations and the error-to-margin cost parameter (C) was performed by ten-fold cross validation on the Task training set.", | |

| "text": "The connective classifier builds on two groups of feature templates: (a) the generic, surface-oriented ones defined by Velldal et al. (2012) and (b) the more targeted, discourse-specific features of Pitler & Nenkova (2009) , Lin et al. (2014) , and Wang & Lan (2015) . Of these, group (a) comprises n-grams of downcased surface forms and parts of speech for up to five token positions preceding and following the connective; and group (b) draws heavily on syntactic configurations extracted from the phrase structure parses provided with the Task data. During system development, a few thousand distinct combinations of features were evaluated, including variable levels of feature conjunction (called interaction features by Pitler & Nenkova, 2009) within each group. These experiments suggest that there is substantial overlap between the utility of the various feature templates, and n-gram window size can to a certain degree be traded off with richer syntactic features. Many distinct configurations yield near-identical performance in cross-validation on the training data, and we selected our final model by (a) giving preference to configurations with smaller numbers of features and lower variance across folds and (b) additionally evaluating a dozen candidate configurations against the development data. The model used in the system submission includes n-grams of up to three preceding and following positions, full feature conjunction for the 'self' and 'parent' categories of Pitler & Nenkova (2009) , but limited conjunctions involving their 'left' and 'right' sibling categories, and none of the 'connected context' features suggested by Wang & Lan (2015) . This model has some 1.2 million feature types.", | |

| "text": "Non-Explicit Relations According to the PDTB guidelines, non-explicit relations must be stipulated between each pair of sentences iff four conditions hold: two sentences (a) are adjacent; (b) are located in the same paragraph; and (c) are not yet 'connected' by an explicit connective; and (d) a coherence relation can be inferred or an entity-based relation holds between them. We proceed straightforwardly: We traverse the sentence bigrams, following condition (a). Paragraph boundaries are detected based on character offsets in the input text (b). We compute a list of already 'connected' first sentences in sentence bigrams, extracting all the previously detected explicit connectives whose Arg1 is located in the 'previous sentence' (PS; see \u00a74). If the first sentence in a candidate bigram is not yet 'connected' (c), we posit a nonexplicit relation for the bigram. Condition (d) is ignored, since NoRel annotations are extremely rare and EntRel vs. Implicit relations are disambiguated in the downstream sense module ( \u00a75). We currently do not attempt to recover the AltLex instances, because they are relatively infrequent and there is a high chance for false positives.", | |

In order to test this assumption, we quantify the alignment of arguments with constituents in en.train, see Table 1 . We find that the initial alignment (Align w/o edits) is rather low, in particular for Explicit arguments (.48 for Arg1 and .54 for Arg2). We therefore formulate a set of constituent editing heuristics, designed to improve on this alignment by including or removing certain elements from the candidate constituent. We apply the following heuristics, with conditions by argument type (Arg1 vs. Arg2), connective type (explicit vs. non-explicit) and position (SS vs. PS) in parentheses. Following editing, the alignment of arguments with the edited constituents improves considerably for explicit Arg1s (.81) and Arg2s (.84), see Table 1 .", | |

| "text": "W&L LSVC Another prediction module is a reimplementation of the Wang & Lan (2015) systemthe winner of the previous iteration of the ConNLL Shared Task on shallow discourse parsing. In contrast to the original version, however, which relies on the Maximum Entropy classifier for predicting the senses of explicit relations and utilizes the Na\u00efve Bayes approach for classifying the senses of the non-explicit ones, both of our components (explicit and non-explicit) use the LIBLINEAR system (Fan et al., 2008 )-a speed-optimized SVM (Boser et al., 1992) with linear kernel. In our derived classifier, we adopt all features 1 of the original implementation up to the Brown clusters, where instead of taking the differences and intersections of the clusters from both arguments, we use the Cartesian product (CP) of the Brown groups similarly to the token-CP features of the UniTN system from last year (Stepanov et al., 2015) . Additionally, in order to reduce the number of possible CP attributes, we take the set of 1,000 clusters provided by the organizers of the Task instead of differentiating between 3,200 Brown groups as was done originally by Wang & Lan (2015) . Unlike the upstream modules in our pipeline, whose model parameters are tuned by 10-fold crossvalidation on the training set, the hyper-parameters of the sense classifiers are tweaked towards the development set, while using the entire training data for computing the feature weights. This decision is motivated by the wish to harness the full range of the training set, since the number of the target classes to predict is much bigger than in the preceding sub-tasks and because some of the senses, e.g. Expansion.Exception, only appear a dozen of times in the provided dataset. For training the final system, we use the Crammer-Singer multi-class strategy (Crammer & Singer, 2001) optimizing the primal objective and setting the error penalty term C to 0.3.", | |

Most results are consistent across types of arguments, the two data sets, and the upper-bound estimates in Table 1 , with Arg1 harder to identify than Arg2. However an anomaly is the extraction of Arg2 in explicit relations where the Arg1 is in the immediately preceding sentence, which is poor in the WSJ Test Set but better in the blind set. This may be due to variance in the number of PS Arg1s in the respective sets, but will be investigated further in future work on error analysis.", | |

As can be seen from the table, the LIBLINEAR reimplementation of the Wang & Lan system was the strongest component in our ensemble, outperforming the best results on the WSJ test set from the previous year by 0.89 F 1 . The XGBoost variant of that module typically achieved the second best scores, being slightly better at predicting the sense of non-explicit relations on the blind test set. The majority class predictor is the least competitive part, which, however, is made up for by the simplicity of the model and its relative robustness to unseen data.

| "text": "The most innovative aspect of this work, arguably, is our adaptation of constituent ranking and editing from negation and speculation analysis to the sub-task of argument identification in discourse parsing. Premium performance (relatively speaking, comparing to the previous state of the art) on this sub-problem is in no small part the reason for overall competitive performance of the OPT system, despite its relatively simplistic architecture. The constituent ranker (and to some degree also the 'targeted' features in connective disambiguation) embodies a strong commitment to syntactic analysis as a prerequisite to discourse parsing. This is an interesting observation, in that it (a) confirms tight interdependencies between intra-and interutterance analysis and (b) offers hope that higherquality syntactic analysis should translate into improved discourse parsing. We plan to investigate these connections through in-depth error analysis and follow-up experimentation with additional syntactic parsers and types of representations. Another noteworthy property of our OPT system submission appears to be its relative resilience to minor differences in text type between the WSJ and 'blind' test data. We attribute this behavior at least in part to methodological choices made in parameter tuning, in particular cross-validation over the training data-yielding more reliable estimates of system performance than tuning against the much smaller development set-and selective, step-wise inclusion of features in model development.", | |
