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.

To collect article-level labels, we utilized a platform in the company that has been used by the market research team to collect surveys from the subscribers of different news publishers. The survey works as follows: The user is first presented with a set of selected pages (usually 4 pages and around 20 articles) from the print paper the day before. The user can select an article each time that he or she has read, and answer some questions about it. We added 3 questions to the existing survey that asked the level of partisanship, the polarity of partisanship, and which pro- or anti- entities the article presents. We also asked the political standpoint of the user. The complete survey can be found in Appendices. 
 Question: Did they crowdsource the annotations?
Yes-no

To further improve the performance, we adopt system combination on the decoding lattice level. By combining systems, we can take advantage of the strength of each model that is optimized for different domains.  The best result for vlsp2018 of 4.85% WER is obtained by the combination weights 0.6:0.4 where 0.6 is given to the general language model and 0.4 is given to the conversation one. On the vlsp2019 set, the ratio is change slightly by 0.7:0.3 to deliver the best result of 15.09%. 
 Question: What is the language model combination technique used in the paper?
Extractive

We evaluate our approach by training an autocomplete system on 500K randomly sampled sentences from Yelp reviews BIBREF6 (see Appendix for details). We quantify the efficiency of a communication scheme $(q_{\alpha },p_{\beta })$ by the retention rate of tokens, which is measured as the fraction of tokens that are kept in the keywords. The accuracy of a scheme is measured as the fraction of sentences generated by greedily decoding the model that exactly matches the target sentence. 
 Question: How are models evaluated in this human-machine communication game?

Extractive
