A CRITICAL Sample Clauses

A CRITICAL. EVALUATION OF THE XXXX ET AL.’S (2003) INTER-ANNOTATOR AGREEMENT APPROACH There are lots of properties that make Xxxx et al’s (2003) approach re-usable. Firstly, their approach is supported with well-developed annotation guidelines which are based on a well-defined discourse theory. The annotation guidelines are brought to maturity by the training sessions. The training sessions not only advanced the annotation guidelines but also the annotators. Therefore, including training sessions in the annotation protocol is a double win. As another note worthy aspect, Xxxx et al. (2003) conducted all their annotations with at least two individual annotators in order to apply chance-corrected inter-annotator agreement measurement methodologies. They presented adjusted chance-corrected statistic (the kappa statistic) according to the needs of their theoretical framework. The kappa statistic is implemented in four different ways to meet the needs of the RST-based hierarchical discourse structure. Moreover, they explicitly presented the results and the corresponding methodologies with the negligible exception that they did not mention the exact kappa statistic used to measure the unit level agreement. Finally, they presented two sets of results, one of which is useful to monitor the effect of trainings, and the other is useful to monitor the repeatability of the annotations among different texts and annotators. Besides such important suggestions and implementations, Xxxx et al’s approach is not flawless. The problems can be classified into two groups: which are inherited from Marcu et al.’s (1999) study, and those which emerged in the study of Xxxx et al. (2003). The problems inherited from Xxxxx et al. (1999) are also discussed in the study of Xxxxx et al. (1999). All the problems raised by Xxxxx et al. (1999) will not be presented here, only the problems that will contribute to the ultimate goal of this thesis will be presented. The most noticeable problem is that the agreement levels (units, spans, nuclearity, relation, and group of relations) are independent from each other. With this approach, it is impossible to assign the source level of disagreement. For instance, wrong unit segmentation may lead to false nuclearity annotations, but may not affect the other levels’ annotation. On the other hand, in another wrong unit segmentation case, all levels’ annotation may be affected. Secondly, because of the hierarchical nature of the annotations, there exist lots of non...
