Challenge: Existing models for implicit discourse relation recognition are based on generative models, but some studies suggest they do not perform as well as generic encoder-only models for NLU tasks.
Approach: They propose a classification method that is solely based on generative models and utilize Chain-of-Thoughts to partition the inference process into a sequence of three successive stages.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms existing models on a natural language understanding task.
