The Penn Discourse Treebank (PDTB) (Prasad et al., 2008) , for example, describes discourse as a set of individual relations.

Each component has to implement a specified interface that assumes to process a well defined document structure. Starting with a document without annotated discourse relations, each component further adds its predictions while the document is passed through the pipeline, for example one component identifies connectives and their sense and, based on this prediction, another component extracts arguments around these connectives to complete the explicit relations. This parser architecture makes the definition of a custom pipeline easy and components remain interchangeable. Together with the framework, we provide multiple components for an endto-end neural shallow discourse parser. The simple pipeline interface (exemplified in Listing 2) with methods such as fit, parse, and eval, ensures pleasant user experience. The system combines recent research on various subtasks with advances in contextualized word embeddings. We make the framework and pre-trained components available under https://github.com/rknaebel/discopy. In the following, we briefly summarize the components implemented in our system. Contextualized Word Embeddings. We start by generating contextualized embeddings for each document. These embeddings come from a chosen BERT architecture that is provided by the Hugging Face transformers library (Wolf et al., 2020) . Pre-tokenized sentences are processed again by a specific BERT tokenizer which results in a possibly higher number of sub-tokens as the input sequence. For each input token, we select and concatenate the last four hidden layers that correspond to the first sub-token, following the principle demonstrated by Devlin et al. (2019) that performed best using the BERT architecture as a feature extractor. Each component in our discourse parser uses the same input embeddings. This has the advantage, to only produce the computation-intense embeddings once in the beginning. Connective Sense Classifier. The first component in the pipeline refers to the problem of connective disambiguation and explicit sense classification. This component is based on the work of Knaebel and Stede (2020) of which we use the jointly trained model to keep the number of components as small as possible. The component first extracts connective candidates based on a pattern-matching approach. Then, these candidates are classified as having a sentential meaning or a connective meaning which is indicated by a predicted sense class. The idea of using the same features for both tasks originates from Pitler and Nenkova (2009) . Explicit Connective Argument Extractor. The component that is responsible to extract explicit arguments creates a window surrounding the previously predicted connective and searches for corresponding arguments (Arg1 and Arg2) within this span. We extend the connective argument extractor of Knaebel et al. (2019) and replace GloVe embeddings (Pennington et al., 2014) by our contextualized embeddings. Implicit Sense Classifier. Implicit relations are annotated on adjacent sentences within the same paragraph that do not contain any other explicit relation. For the implicit sense classifier, we choose a simple approach and collect all implicit candidate sentence pairs. We follow previous work by Rutherford et al. (2017) which has been recently chosen as a baseline in work by Liang et al. (2020) . There, embeddings for both arguments are collected and processed by a recurrent neural network. Then, both intermediate representations are combined using a maximum pooling layer and given to a fully connected layer to predict the implicit sense. We adopt this approach by using our contextualized embeddings, and we add a labels for entity-based relations (EntRel) as well as a for the absence of any relation (NoRel) to the final set of predictions.",

Directly below, the document's text is shown together with a list of its discourse relations at the bottom of the view. Then, each discourse relation is listed with its corresponding relation type (e.g. Explicit, Implicit, EntRel, AltLex), as well as its sense.

Also, it seems not beneficial in our experimental design to use a large version of a model.

The performance for implicit relations (arguments and overall) is noticeably weak as we used I fairly simple method for recognizing arguments following Lin et al. (2014) .
