Task: Question Understanding
Input (English): Work on VAE in BIBREF17 to learn acoustic embeddings conducted experiments using the TIMIT data set. The baseline performance for VAE based phone classification experiments in BIBREF17 report an accuracy of 72.2%. The re-implementation forming the basis for our work gave an accuracy of 72.0%, a result that was considered to provide a credible basis for further work. 
 Question: What classification baselines are used for comparison?
Output (English): Extractive
