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.

Despite the focus on sharing datasets and source codes on popular software development platforms such as GitHub (github.com) or Zenodo (zenodo.org), it is still a challenge to use data or code from other groups. 
 Question: Are datasets publicly available?
Yes-no

We introduce a surrogate training objective that avoids these problems and as a result is fully continuous.  Specifically, we form a continuous function softLB that seeks to approximate the result of running our decoder on input INLINEFORM0 and then evaluating the result against INLINEFORM1 using INLINEFORM2 . 
 Question: Do they provide a framework for building a sub-differentiable for any final loss metric?
Yes-no

In Sec. "Materials and Methods" we discuss our materials and methods, including the dataset we studied, how we preprocessed that data and extracted a `causal' corpus and a corresponding `control' corpus, and the details of the statistical and language analysis tools we studied these corpora with. 
 Question: Do they use expert annotations, crowdsourcing, or only automatic methods to analyze the corpora?

Abstractive
