The input is taken from a negotiation between two participants who take the role of campsite neighbors and negotiate for Food, Water, and Firewood packages, based on their individual preferences and requirements. Given an utterance and recent dialogue context containing past 3 utterances (wherever available), output Yes if the utterance contains the small-talk strategy, otherwise output No. small-talk is a cooperative negotiation strategy. It is used for discussing topics apart from the negotiation, in an attempt to build a rapport with the opponent. For example, discussing how the opponent is doing during the pandemic or sharing excitement for the camping trip.

Ex Input:
Context: 'We're nearly there and just realized that we must have missed picking up some of our stuff before leaving.' 'Were we supposed to bring things?  Oh, no!  I'm gonna die...' 'Of course, it's always wise to bring things. We absolutely need water and some food. Water is critical though.'
Utterance: 'You got that right!  I just came from a three-day rugby tournament and I am totally dehydrated.  I hope they have enough at the site.  I also get the chills bigtime when I am dehydrated. That's how I know I am very dehydrated...'

Ex Output:
Yes


Ex Input:
Context: 'Forest, for sure. Deserts have scorpions and tarantulas and I'm scared of those.' 'Amen! Me too! 🙂 I too was thinking of going to the forest. Is your forest going to be wet or pretty dry?' 'It'll be pretty dry. I don't want to catch a cold. '
Utterance: 'I wanted to a rainforest near where I live. I love listening to the rain. Did you think that you were going to need all of the firewood since you can get dry wood from the trees?'

Ex Output:
Yes


Ex Input:
Context: 'Good morning! Are you excited to go camping this weekend?' 'Yes, how about you! We are headed to Joshua Tree NP to do some rock climbing and hiking. '
Utterance: 'Ooh rock climbing! I'm definitely scared of heights, so that's out for me. I'm heading to the Puget Sound to camp near the ocean.'

Ex Output:

Yes
