Definition: In this task, you will be presented with a context from an academic paper and a question based on the context. You have to classify the questions into "Extractive", "Abstractive", or "Yes-no" questions. Extractive questions can be answered by concatenating extracts taken from a context into a summary while answering abstractive questions involves paraphrasing the context using novel sentences. Yes-no question is a question whose expected answer is one of two choices, one that affirms the question and one that denies the question. Typically, the choices are either yes or no.

Positive Example 1 -
Input: We build a dataset of Twitter accounts based on two lists annotated in previous works. For the non-factual accounts, we rely on a list of 180 Twitter accounts from BIBREF1. On the other hand, for the factual accounts, we use a list with another 32 Twitter accounts from BIBREF19 that are considered trustworthy by independent third parties. 
 Question: How did they obtain the dataset?
Output: Extractive

Positive Example 2 -
Input: We evaluate our pointer-generator performance using BLEU score. The baseline language model is trained using RNNLM BIBREF23 . Perplexity measure is used in the evaluation.

 
 Question: Did they use other evaluation metrics?
Output: Yes-no

Negative Example 1 -
Input: For the English version, we performed both a thorough manual analysis and automatic evaluation across three commonly used TS datasets from two different domains  For the English version, we performed both a thorough manual analysis and automatic evaluation across three commonly used TS datasets from two different domains  The evaluation of the German version is in progress. 
 Question: What are the corpora used for the task?
Output: Yes-no

Negative Example 2 -
Input: For Turkish, as the first dataset, we utilised the movie reviews which are collected from a popular website. The number of reviews in this movie corpus is 20,244 and the average number of words in reviews is 39. Each of these reviews has a star-rating score which is indicative of sentiment. These polarity scores are between the values 0.5 and 5, at intervals of 0.5. We consider a review to be negative it the score is equal to or lower than 2.5. On the other hand, if it is equal to or higher than 4, it is assumed to be positive. We have randomly selected 7,020 negative and 7,020 positive reviews and processed only them. 
 Question: What details are given about the movie domain dataset?
Output: Extractive

Now complete the following example -
Input: The current configuration of Aristo comprises of eight solvers, described shortly, each of which attempts to answer a multiple choice question. To study particular phenomena and develop solvers, the project has created larger datasets to amplify and study different problems, resulting in 10 new datasets and 5 large knowledge resources for the community.

The solvers can be loosely grouped into:

Statistical and information retrieval methods

Reasoning methods

Large-scale language model methods Over the life of the project, the relative importance of the methods has shifted towards large-scale language methods. The field of NLP has advanced substantially with the advent of large-scale language models such as ELMo (BID6), ULMFit (BID37), GPT (BID38), BERT (BID7), and RoBERTa (BID8). These models are trained to perform various language prediction tasks such as predicting a missing word or the next sentence, using large amounts of text (e.g., BERT was trained on Wikipedia + the Google Book Corpus of 10,000 books). They can also be fine-tuned to new language prediction tasks, such as question-answering, and have been remarkably successful in the few months that they have been available. We apply BERT to multiple choice questions by treating the task as classification: Given a question $q$ with answer options $a_{i}$ and optional background knowledge $K_{i}$, we provide it to BERT as:

[CLS] $K_i$ [SEP] $q$ [SEP] $a_{i}$ [SEP] The AristoBERT solver uses three methods to apply BERT more effectively. First, we retrieve and supply background knowledge along with the question when using BERT. This provides the potential for BERT to “read” that background knowledge and apply it to the question, although the exact nature of how it uses background knowledge is more complex and less interpretable. Second, we fine-tune BERT using a curriculum of several datasets, including some that are not science related. Finally, we ensemble different variants of BERT together. 
 Question: Is Aristo just some modern NLP model (ex. BERT) finetuned od data specific for this task?
Output: 


Answer: Yes-no
