## Summary

Iruskieta and Braud build the first RST-based discourse parser for Basque. Its training material, the Basque RST DT, has fewer than a hundred documents. They reuse the transition-based shift-reduce parser of Braud et al. (2017) and compare two kinds of systems:

- **Monolingual systems** use Basque data only, with hyper-parameters tuned by cross-validation and with random or pre-trained Basque embeddings.
- **Cross-lingual systems** learn from the English, Spanish and Portuguese RST treebanks, either alone ("Src Only") or combined with Basque data ("Src+Tgt"). Each language is aligned to Basque with bilingual embeddings built through VecMap.

The best monolingual model scores 34.78 F1 on the full discourse structure. This beats the earlier 29.5 obtained by Braud et al. (2017), which relied solely on other languages' data. Adding foreign treebanks did not surpass the Basque-only parser.

A qualitative analysis shows that the parser leans on a few general, uninformative relations such as ELABORATION. Human annotators, by contrast, agree on more specific relations. The authors conclude that annotating more Basque data is essential. They see the tool as a basis for summarisation, sentiment analysis and pre-annotation.

## Key points

- **Data:** The Basque RST DT contains specialised abstracts (medicine, terminology, science) and opinion texts labelled with 31 relations; 38 documents form the test set. The cross-lingual sources are the English RST DT (385 docs), the Spanish RST DT and a merged Portuguese corpus (329 docs).
- **Embeddings:** The monolingual systems use word2vec skip-gram vectors (350 dimensions) trained on the Elhuyar Web Corpus, as well as FastText vectors (300 dimensions). Cross-lingual mappings were built with VecMap, using identical words as a seed dictionary.
- **Result:** The best score is 34.78 F1 for the full structure, ahead of the prior 29.5. The cross-lingual setups fell short of the monolingual system.
- **Error analysis:** JOINT was predicted 192 times with only one correct match, and LIST was never matched. The cross-lingual model trained on Portuguese got essentially just ELABORATION right.
- **Code:** The code is released at gitlab.inria.fr/andiamo/eusdisparser.
