Since the release of the Rhetorical Structure Theory Discourse Treebank and the Penn Discourse Treebank, the research on English discourse parsing has attracted increasing attention and achieved considerable success in recent years. At the same time, some preliminary research on certain subtasks about discourse parsing for other languages, such as Chinese, has been conducted. In this article, we present an end-to-end Chinese discourse parser with the Connective-Driven Dependency Tree scheme, which consists of multiple components in a pipeline architecture, such as the elementary discourse unit (EDU) detector, discourse relation recognizer, discourse parse tree generator, and attribution labeler. In particular, the attribution labeler determines two attributions (i.e., sense and centering) for every nonterminal node (i.e., discourse relation) in the discourse parse trees. Systematically, our parser detects all EDUs in a free text, generates the discourse parse tree in a bottom-up way, and determines the sense and centering attributions for all nonterminal nodes by traversing the discourse parse tree. Comprehensive evaluation on the Connective-Driven Dependency Treebank corpus from both component-wise and error-cascading perspectives is conducted to illustrate how each component performs in isolation, and how the pipeline performs with error propagation. Finally, it shows that our end-to-end Chinese discourse parser achieves an overall F1 score of 20% with full automation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1145\/3099557","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,13]],"date-time":"2017-07-13T14:29:57Z","timestamp":1499956197000},"page":"1-17","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1145\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["A CDT-Styled End-to-End Chinese Discourse Parser"],"prefix":"10.1145","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Fang","family":"Kong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Soochow University"}]},{"given":"Guodong","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Soochow University"}]}],"member":"320","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_1_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3115\/1118078.1118083"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2012 ACL Conference (ACL\u201912)","year":"2012","author":"Feng Vanessa Wei","key":"e_1_2_1_2_1"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2011 IJCNLP Conference (IJCNLP\u201911)","year":"2011","author":"Huang Hen-Hsen","key":"e_1_2_1_3_1"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of COLING 2012 Demonstration Papers.","year":"2012","author":"Huang Hen-Hsen","key":"e_1_2_1_4_1"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2012 Special Interest Group on Discourse and Dialogue.","year":"2012","author":"Huang Hen-Hsen","key":"e_1_2_1_5_1"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2014 EMNLP Conference (EMNLP\u201914)","year":"2004","author":"Kong Fang","key":"e_1_2_1_6_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3115\/v1\/D14-1224"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5555\/1699510.1699555"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2011 ACL Conference (ACL\u201911)","year":"2011","author":"Lin Ziheng","key":"e_1_2_1_9_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S1351324912000307"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2013 Workshop on Discourse in Machine Translation.","year":"2013","author":"Meyer Thomas","key":"e_1_2_1_11_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5555\/1667583.1667589"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2008 LREC Conference (LREC\u201908)","year":"2008","author":"Prasad Rashmi","key":"e_1_2_1_13_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_14_1","first-page":"21","article-title":"Discourse-based answering of why-questions","volume":"47","author":"Verberne Susan","year":"2007","journal-title":"Traitement Automatique Des Langues"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5555\/1608829.1608841"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S135132490400364X"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2012 ACL Conference (ACL\u201912)","year":"2012","author":"Yang Yaqin","key":"e_1_2_1_17_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_18_1","first-page":"19","article-title":"Rhetorical structure annotation of Chinese news commentaries","volume":"22","author":"Yue Ming","year":"2008","journal-title":"Journal of Chinese Information Processing"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2014 LREC Conference (LREC\u201914)","year":"2014","author":"Zhou Lanjun","key":"e_1_2_1_19_1"},{"volume-title":"Proceedings of the 2012 ACL Conference (ACL\u201912)","year":"2012","author":"Zhou Yuping","key":"e_1_2_1_20_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10579-014-9290-3"}],"container-title":["ACM Transactions on Asian and Low-Resource Language Information Processing"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/10.1145\/3099557","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/pdf\/10.1145\/3099557","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,18]],"date-time":"2025-06-18T03:37:17Z","timestamp":1750217837000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/10.1145\/3099557"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,13]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,31]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1145\/3099557"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1145\/3099557","relation":{},"ISSN":["2375-4699","2375-4702"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2375-4699"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2375-4702"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,13]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2017-01-01","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2017-05-01","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2017-07-13","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
