To alleviate the shortage of labeled data, we propose to use bilingually-constrained synthetic implicit data for implicit discourse relation recognition.These data are extracted from a bilingual sentence-aligned corpus according to the implicit/explicit mismatch between different languages.Incorporating these data via a multi-task neural network model achieves significant improvements over baselines, on both the English PDTB and Chinese CDTB data sets.
