In this task, you will be presented with a context from an academic paper and a question separated with a 
. You have to answer the question based on the context.

We then proceed to connect these mentions i) if they co-occur within the same document (we will refer to this as DOC-BASED edges), ii) if the pair of named entity mentions is identical (MATCH edges—these may connect nodes across and within documents), or iii) if they are in the same coreference chain, as predicted by the external coreference system (COREF edges). 
 Question: Did they use a relation extraction method to construct the edges in the graph?
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

To test the robustness of the taggers against the OOV problem, we also conduct experiments using artificially constructed unnormalized text by corrupting words in the normal dev set. Again, the CNN tagger outperforms the two baselines by a very large margin. 
 Question: How do they confirm their model working well on out-of-vocabulary problems?

conduct experiments using artificially constructed unnormalized text by corrupting words in the normal dev set
