Task: Question Answering
Input (English): The UCL team had access to micro-narratives, as well as context specific meta-data such as demographic information and project details. For a cross-national comparison for policy-makers, the team translated the responses in multiple languages into English using machine translation, in this case Translate API (Yandex Technologies). As a pre-processing step, words without functional meaning (e.g. `I'), rare words that occurred in only one narrative, numbers, and punctuation were all removed. The remaining words were stemmed to remove plural forms of nouns or conjugations of verbs. 
 Question: What elements of natural language processing are proposed to analyze qualitative data?
Output (English): translated the responses in multiple languages into English using machine translation words without functional meaning (e.g. `I'), rare words that occurred in only one narrative, numbers, and punctuation were all removed remaining words were stemmed to remove plural forms of nouns or conjugations of verbs
