Fine-Grained Discourse Structures in Continuation Semantics
In this work, we are interested in the computation of logical representations of discourse. We argue that all discourse connectives are anaphors obeying different sets of constraints and show how this view allows one to account for the semantically parenthetical use of attitude verbs and verbs of report (e.g., think, say) and for sequences of conjunctions (A CONJ{\_}1 B CONJ{\_}2 C). We implement this proposal in event semantics using de Groote (2006){'}s dynamic framework.

Discourse Structures Guided Fine-grained Propaganda Identification
Propaganda is a form of deceptive narratives that instigate or mislead the public, usually with a political purpose. In this paper, we aim to identify propaganda in political news at two fine-grained levels: sentence-lev…
AttributeKnowledge DistillationSentenceIs It JUST Semantics? A Case Study of Discourse Particle Understanding in LLMs
Discourse particles are crucial elements that subtly shape the meaning of text. These words, often polyfunctional, give rise to nuanced and often quite disparate semantic/discourse effects, as exemplified by the diverse …
Superlatives in Context: Modeling the Implicit Semantics of Superlatives
Superlatives are used to single out elements with a maximal/minimal property. Semantically, superlatives perform a set comparison: something (or some things) has the min/max property out of a set. As such, superlatives p…
Distributed Marker Representation for Ambiguous Discourse Markers and Entangled Relations
Discourse analysis is an important task because it models intrinsic semantic structures between sentences in a document. Discourse markers are natural representations of discourse in our daily language. One challenge is …
SentenceReasoningFlow: Discourse Structures for Understanding LLM Reasoning Traces
Large reasoning models (LRMs) produce reasoning traces with non-linear structures, such as backtracking and self-correction, that complicate the evaluation and monitoring of the reasoning process. We introduce ReasoningF…
