Task: Question Answering
Input (English): First, the GRU only allows sentences to have context from sentences before them, but not after them. This prevents information propagation from future sentences. Second, the supporting sentences may be too far away from each other on a word level to allow for these distant sentences to interact through the word level GRU. 
 Question: Why is supporting fact supervision necessary for DMN?
