instruction:
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.
question:
The basic concept is to use a phone-discriminative model to produce frame-level phonetic features, and then use these features to enhance RNN LID systems that were originally built with raw acoustic features. The initial step is therefore feature combination, with the phonetic feature used as auxiliary information to assist acoustic RNN LID. This is improved further, as additional research identified that a simpler model using only the phonetic feature as the RNN LID input provides even better performance. We call this RNN model based on phonetic features the phonetic temporal neural LID approach, or PTN LID. As well as having a simplified model structure, the PTN offers deeper insight into the LID task by rediscovering the value of the phonetic temporal property in language discrimination.  
 Question: What is the main contribution of the paper? 
answer:
Abstractive


question:
For the two single sentence tasks—the syntax-oriented CoLA task and the SST sentiment task—we find somewhat deteriorated performance. 
 Question: Does the additional training on supervised tasks hurt performance in some tasks?
answer:
Yes-no


question:
There are various possible extensions for this work. For example, using all frames assigned to a phone, rather than using only the middle frame. 
 Question: Do they propose any further additions that could be made to improve generalisation to unseen speakers?
answer:

Yes-no
