In this work, we design and compare two Neural Based models for jointly learning both tasks. In the proposed approach, we first create a vector representation for all the text segments in the input sentence. Next, we apply three different Recursive Neural Net models: one for discourse structure prediction, one for discourse relation prediction and one for sentiment analysis. Finally, we combine these Neural Nets in two different joint models: Multi-tasking and Pre-training. Our results on two standard corpora indicate that both methods result in improvements in each task but Multi-tasking has a bigger impact than Pre-training. Specifically for Discourse Parsing, we see improvements in the prediction of the set of contrastive relations.","url_abs":"https://aclanthology.org/W17-5535","url_pdf":"https://aclanthology.org/W17-5535.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"discourse-parsing","task_name":"Discourse Parsing"},{"task_slug":"prediction","task_name":"Prediction"},{"task_slug":"relation-prediction","task_name":"Relation Prediction"},{"task_slug":"sentence","task_name":"Sentence"},{"task_slug":"sentiment-analysis","task_name":"Sentiment Analysis"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[{"leaderboard":"/sota/sentiment-analysis-on-sst-2-binary","task":"Sentiment Analysis","dataset":"SST-2 Binary classification","model":"Joined Model Multi-tasking","rank_in_archive_order":83,"of":87,"metrics":{"Accuracy":" 54.72 "},"uses_additional_data":false},{"leaderboard":"/sota/sentiment-analysis-on-sst-5-fine-grained","task":"Sentiment Analysis","dataset":"SST-5 Fine-grained classification","model":"Joined Model Multi-tasking","rank_in_archive_order":26,"of":31,"metrics":{"Accuracy":"44.82"},"uses_additional_data":false}],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
