Task: Question Answering
Input (English): The system consists of: (i) Local, shallow features based mostly on orthographic, word shape and n-gram features plus their context; and (ii) three types of simple clustering features, based on unigram matching: (i) Brown BIBREF32 clusters, taking the 4th, 8th, 12th and 20th node in the path; (ii) Clark BIBREF33 clusters and, (iii) Word2vec BIBREF34 clusters, based on K-means applied over the extracted word vectors using the skip-gram algorithm. 
 Question: What shallow local features are extracted?
Output (English):  Local, shallow features based mostly on orthographic, word shape and n-gram features plus their context
