We introduce a simple and effective method to learn discourse-specific word embeddings (DSWE) for implicit discourse relation recognition. Specifically, DSWE is learned by performing connective classification on massive explicit discourse data, and capable of capturing discourse relationships between words. On the PDTB data set, using DSWE as features achieves significant improvements over baselines.
This paper describes the Neural Machine Translation systems of Xiamen University for the translation tasks of WMT 17. Our systems are based on the Encoder-Decoder framework with attention. We participated in three directions of shared news translation tasks: English→German and Chinese↔English. We experimented with deep architectures, different segmentation models, synthetic training data and targetbidirectional translation models. Experiments show that all methods can give substantial improvements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
