    abstract = "Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance across various NLP tasks, yet they continue to face challenges in discourse relation recognition (DRR). Current state-of-the-art methods for DRR primarily rely on smaller pre-trained language models (PLMs). In this study, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of different approaches using both PLMs and LLMs, evaluating their effectiveness for DRR at multiple granularities and under different data availability settings. Our findings indicate that no single approach consistently outperforms the others, and we offer a general comparison framework to guide the selection of the most appropriate model based on specific DRR requirements and data conditions."
