## Papers

1. **[Dependency Dialogue Acts — Annotation Scheme and Case Study](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/cai-2023-dependency-dialogue-acts-annotation-scheme/)** *(2023)* Dependency Dialogue Acts (DDA) is an annotation scheme for multi-party, multi-threaded talk (classroom group work, chat).
2. **[Are you serious?: Rhetorical Questions and Sarcasm in Social Media Dialog](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/oraby-2017-are-you-serious-rhetorical-questions/)** *(2017)* Rhetorical questions (questions not meant to get an answer) are collected with an intent-based heuristic: a question in the middle of a turn that the same speaker answers at once, without giving up the turn.
3. **[Creating and Characterizing a Diverse Corpus of Sarcasm in Dialogue](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/oraby-2016-creating-characterizing-diverse-corpus-sarcasm/)** *(2016)* The authors build a sarcasm corpus from online debate forums (Internet Argument Corpus 2.0) with three balanced parts: generic sarcasm, rhetorical questions and hyperbole.
4. **[A Dependency Treebank for English](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bank-2002-rambow-dependency-treebank-english/)** *(2002)* The paper describes the syntactic layer of the ISLE project, a small corpus of about 13,000 words of transcribed travel-agent speech with multiple annotation levels.
