| Challenge: | Currently, we are adding a new document-level discourse annotation to our new corpus. |
| Approach: | They propose to build a Persian discourse treebank and a comprehensive Persian coreference corpus based on discourse analysis and coreference resolution. |
| Outcome: | The proposed corpus includes 30000 individual sentences with morphological, syntactic and semantic labels and nearly half a million tokens. |

Enriching a Lexicon of Discourse Connectives with Corpus-based Data (L18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing annotation efforts for multiple languages have focused on discourse connectives, but we have limited it to the class of connectives marking contrast and the additional relations such connectives might convey. |

| Challenge: | Existing datasets vary in definition of coreferences and are curated for linguistic experts. |
| Approach: | They propose to use ezCoref to create a crowdsourcing-friendly coreference annotation methodology that teaches annotators only cases that are treated similarly across existing datasets. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method reannotates 240 passages from seven existing english coreference datasets while teaching annotators only cases that are treated similarly across them. |

Informal Persian Universal Dependency Treebank (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | phonological, morphological, and syntactic distinctions between formal and informal Persian are important . formal Persian is not a universally recognized form of language, but is a dialect of informal Persian . |
| Approach: | They develop an open-source treebank for informal Persian to train dependency parsers . they then train dependency lexicographers on existing treebanks and evaluate them on out-of-domain data . |
| Outcome: | The proposed treebanks show that they perform poorly when training on formal and informal Persians. |
