Argument mining consists in the automatic identification of argumentative structures in texts. In this work we address the open question of whether discourse-level annotations can contribute to facilitate the identification of argumentative components and relations in scientific literature. We conduct a pilot study by enriching a corpus of computational linguistics abstracts that contains discourse annotations with a new argumentative annotation level.

We conduct a pilot study by enriching a corpus of computational linguistics abstracts that contains discourse annotations with a new argumentative annotation level. The results obtained from preliminary experiments confirm the potential value of the proposed approach.
