Abstract

Nowadays, in the Natural Language Processing field, with the object of research gradually shifting from the word to sentence, paragraph and higher semantic units, discourse analysis is one crucial step toward a better understanding of how these articles are structured. Compared with micro-level, this has rarely been investigated in macro Chinese discourse analysis and faces tremendous challenges. First, it is harder to grasp the topic and recognize the relationship between macro discourse units due to their longer length and looser relation between them. Second, how to mine the relationship between nuclearity and relation recognition effectively is another challenge. To address these challenges, we propose a joint model of recognizing macro Chinese discourse nuclearity and relation based on Structure and Topic Gated Semantic Network (STGSN). It makes the semantic representation of a discourse unit can change with its position and the topic by Gated Linear Unit (GLU). Moreover, we analyze the results of our models in nuclearity and relation recognition and explore the potential relationship between them. Conducted experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
