Building on prior work, we demonstrate an improved approach to automatically identifying the discourse function of paragraphs in news articles. We start with the hierarchical theory of news discourse developed by van Dijk (1988) which proposes how paragraphs function within news articles. This discourse information is a level intermediate between phrase-or sentence-sized discourse segments and document genre, characterizing how individual paragraphs convey information about the events in the storyline of the article. Specifically, the theory categorizes the relationships between narrated events and (1) the overall storyline (such as MAIN EVENTS, BACKGROUND, or CONSEQUENCES) as well as (2) commentary (such as VERBAL REACTIONS and EVALUATIONS). We trained and tested a linear chain conditional random field (CRF) with new features to model van Dijk's labels and compared it against several machine learning models presented in previous work.

By design, they often begin with a introductory summary of main events, followed by detailed exposition of the main events and consequences, interspersed in a stereotyped fashion with relevant background information, current and past evidence, and reported speech.

In their study, they showed that it was feasible to identify the discourse function of news paragraphs using a support vector machine (SVM) model and a small set of simple linguistic features, with a performance of 0.54 F 1 .", | |

EPISODES concern MAIN EVENTS, which are those events that directly relate to the major subject of the article, and the CONSEQUENCES of those events. The BACKGROUND provides important information about the relation of each paragraph with respect to the central events of a news story. Background includes the CONTEXT, of which CIRCUMSTANCES are temporally or spatially non-specific states that contribute to understanding the subject, while PREVIOUS EVENTS are specific recent events that enhance understanding of the main events. HISTORY paragraphs are another type of Background describing events that have not occurred recently, typically referenced in terms of years prior, rather than months, weeks, or days.", | |

The ACE Phase 2 corpus is a major standard corpora of news articles that boasts three advantages: it is widelyused, has relevance to other tasks, and was readily available to researchers. This dataset comprises 50 documents containing 28,236 words divided in 644 paragraphs. Table 1 shows the corpus-wide statistics for the number of words and paragraphs, where each paragraph is given a single type in accordance to van Dijk's theory. Yarlott et al. (2018) doubly annotated 50 randomly selected news articles, divided into ten sets of five documents each. Within these sets, documents were swapped or replaced in order to obtain uniform sets in terms of total document lengths. The majority of texts were already divided into paragraphs in an obvious manner, either with empty lines or with indentation. The remaining texts were divided by the adjudicator based on either contextual or structural clues, such as abrupt change in topic or unnatural line breaks. The authors report an all-around high agreement with the gold standard (F 1 = 0.85, \u03ba = 0.75) which demonstrates that the gold-standard was not dominated by a single annotator.", | |

Their approach combined a Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model (HHMM)-which used section statistics as the model's transition probabilities-with n-grams for the observation probabilities of words. In this paper we substitute a CRF for the HHMM. Generative models such as HMMs have more explanatory power when compared with their discriminative counterparts such as CRFs. However, HMMs, rely on the assumption that observations are statistically independent from one another. For our problem, this means that an HMM assumes that the presence of certain paragraphs corresponding to a certain discourse label or function A is independent from other paragraphs within another section B. In practice, however, this is not the case: for example a paragraph following the MAIN EVENTS are often either CONSEQUENCES or CIRCUMSTANCES.", | |

In contrast to an HHMM, the CRF encodes labels as nodes in the CRF graphical representation (instead of HMM states), and uses weighted feature functions for transitions between nodes (instead of the HMM transition and emission probabilities). Additionally, the CRF model captures the \"true\" desired probability distribution, that is the conditional distribution of labels given the observations P (Y |X), instead of modeling the joint distribution of observations and labels P (X, Y ). This a known advantage of CRFs in general over HMMs and is mainly due to, again, removing the independence assumption. Thus, CRFs can have an arbitrary number of dependencies as opposed to the limited dependency structure of HMMs. Our model benefits from this as it does not only record the dependence of a discourse label only on its predecessor and observations, but on additional dependencies given the entire sequence of labels (i.e., paragraph discourse functions) and observations (i.e., paragraphs).", | |

As discussed above, there is a feature function for each of the dependencies defined in the model. We encode the interdependent order of labels (i.e., which labels depend upon each other) using a binary matrix. To achieve this, we first used the van Dijk discourse labels shown in Tables 2 and discussed in \u00a72. Then we created a binary matrix V l i\u22121 ,l i whose entries represent whether a label follows another or not. For example if label HISTORY (indexed as label 6) was observed in the data directly before VERBAL REACTIONS (indexed as label 7), then the entry V 6,7 would contain a value of 1. The matrix contained N 2 entries, where N is the total number of labels. Thus our CRF models contained 9 nodes in total. We formulated the section order feature function as follows:", | |

For this, we used a vector for each paragraph corresponding to the number of paragraphs of the article with the maximum number of paragraphs in the corpus. Aldawsari and Finlayson (2019) presented a supervised model for automatically identifying when one event is a subevent of another using narrative and discourse features. For each event relation found by this system between two distinct paragraphs, we recorded a +1 in that corresponding vector cell, while we discarded relationships found within a single paragraph. For the NER vectors, we applied Named Entity Recognition (NER) and extracted the first 13 named entity types found by the Spacy library (AI, 2020) including PERSON, LOCATION, DATE, and TIME.

While our CRF approach uses a more sophisticated set of features leveraging additional syntactic and semantic features as outlined in 4.3. Most importantly, our model treats the problem as a sequence labeling task and therefore captures the sequential dependencies between the paragraphs as well as the labels within each report. This is evidenced by the CRF model that uses only Yarlott et al.'s features, which achieves a higher performance than the original SVM classifier. Our CRF model achieved the largest increase in performance after adding the semantic features. This was expected: we anticipated a boost in performance on the VERBAL REACTIONS class given detection of reported speech, and a similar increase in performance on the MAIN EVENTS and PREVI-OUS EVENTS classes given the addition of event and subevent features. Of the semantic features, the reported speech feature had the biggest impact on the model's performance as the verbal reactions section was predominant in the dataset. Here textacy performed quite well in automatically identifying reported speech as the model achieved a 0.91 F 1 score for the VERBAL REACTIONS class.", | |

The majority event tense feature contributed heavily to the PREVIOUS EVENTS and HISTORY, we suspect due to the relatively more frequent use of past tense verbs in paragraphs belonging to those classes. As discussed before, we used automated systems to detect events and subevent relations. Naturally, these systems do not boast a perfect performance and therefore error propagation is expected. Thus, we expect that our model can further achieve higher performance using more refined event detection solutions, as well as a larger corpus. Table 4 presents the per-label results from our experiments. The relatively strong performance on CIRCUMSTANCES and VERBAL REACTIONS is not surprising, given their relative prevalence in our corpus. Similarly it is not surprising that we have low performance on labels that occur, on average, about once (or less) a document (HIS-TORY, EXPECTATIONS). However, these label types saw a significant performance boost in our model compared to the previous approaches as our features have captured more of their distinct language. For CONSEQUENCES HISTORY, EXPEC-TATIONS, and EVALUATIONS, the syntactic and positional features were most helpful. Similar to (Yarlott et al., 2018) , we observe an unexpectedbut not surprising-level of performance on LEAD paragraphs, given their relative scarcity in the dataset: we find that leads, with a single exception, occur once at the start of the document.", | |

The theory proposed by van Dijk has also been proposed for use in annotating the global structure of elementary discourse units in Dutch news articles (van der Vliet et al., 2011) . Pan and Kosicki (1993) , in a similar analysis, presented a framing-based approach that provides four structural dimensions for the analysis of news discourse: syntactic structure, script structure, thematic structure, and rhetorical structure. Of these, the syntactic structure is most closely aligned with van Dijk's theory.
