In this task, you will be presented with a context from an academic paper and a question based on the context. You have to classify the questions into "Extractive", "Abstractive", or "Yes-no" questions. Extractive questions can be answered by concatenating extracts taken from a context into a summary while answering abstractive questions involves paraphrasing the context using novel sentences. Yes-no question is a question whose expected answer is one of two choices, one that affirms the question and one that denies the question. Typically, the choices are either yes or no.

[EX Q]: Our novelties include:

Using self-play learning for the neural response ranker (described in detail below).

Optimizing neural models for specific metrics (e.g. diversity, coherence) in our ensemble setup.

Training a separate dialog model for each user, personalizing our socialbot and making it more consistent.

Using a response classification predictor and a response classifier to predict and control aspects of responses such as sentiment, topic, offensiveness, diversity etc.

Using a model predictor to predict the best responding model, before the response candidates are generated, reducing computational expenses.

Using our entropy-based filtering technique to filter all dialog datasets, obtaining higher quality training data BIBREF3.

Building big, pre-trained, hierarchical BERT and GPT dialog models BIBREF6, BIBREF7, BIBREF8.

Constantly monitoring the user input through our automatic metrics, ensuring that the user stays engaged. 
 Question: What is novel in author's approach?
[EX A]: Abstractive

[EX Q]:  In this task English tweets from conversation threads, each associated to a newsworthy event and the rumours around it, are provided as data. The goal is to determine whether a tweet in the thread is supporting, denying, querying, or commenting the original rumour which started the conversation.  
 Question: Is this an English-language dataset?
[EX A]: Yes-no

[EX Q]: We evaluate our model and baseline models on three versions of the dataset. The first one (Inc) only considers the original data, containing naturally incorrect tweets, and achieves accuracy of 80$\%$ against BERT's 72$\%$. The second version (Corr) considers the corrected tweets, and shows higher accuracy given that it is less noisy.  
 Question: Should their approach be applied only when dealing with incomplete data?
[EX A]:
Yes-no
