TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: "HUMAN INTENTION-BASED SEGMENTATION: RELIABILITY AND CORRELATION WITH LINGUISTIC CUES"

Certain spans of utterances in a discourse, referred to here as segments, are widely assumedto form coherent units. Further, the segmental structure of discourse has been claimed to constrain and be constrained by many phenomena. However, there is weak consensus on the nature of segments and the criteria for recognizing or generating them. We present quantitative results of a two part study using a corpus of spontaneous, narrative monologues. The first part evaluates the statistical reliability of human segmentation of our corpus, where speaker intention is the segmentation criterion. . | INTENTION-BASED SEGMENTATION HUMAN RELIABILITY AND CORRELATION WITH LINGUISTIC CUES Rebecca J.

Further the segmental structure of discourse has been claimed to constrain and be constrained by many phenomena. However there is weak consensus on the nature of segments and the criteria for recognizing or generating them. We present quantitative results of a two part study using a corpus of spontaneous narrative monologues. The first part evaluates the statistical reliability of human segmentation of our corpus where speaker intention is the segmentation criterion. We then use the subjects segmentations to evaluate the correlation of discourse segmentation with three linguistic cues referential noun phrases cue words and pauses using information retrieval metrics. INTRODUCTION A discourse consists not simply of a linear sequence of utterances 1 but of meaningful relations among the utterances. As in much of the literature on discourse processing we assume that certain spans of utterances referred to here as discourse segments form coherent units.
