Task: Question Understanding
Input (English): In this section, we evaluate the proposed method intrinsically in terms of whether the co-occurrence matrix after the low-rank approximation is able to capture similar concepts on student response data sets, and also extrinsically in terms of the end task of summarization on all corpora. In the following experiments, summary length is set to be the average number of words in human summaries or less. An alternative way to evaluate the hypothesis is to let humans judge whether two bigrams are similar or not, which we leave for future work. 
 Question: Do they quantitavely or qualitatively evalute the output of their low-rank approximation to verify the grouping of lexical items?
Output (English): Abstractive
