In this task, you will be presented with a context from an academic paper and you have to write an answerable question based on the context. Your questions can be extractive, abstractive, or yes-no questions.

Q: Although we create new models for tasks such as sentiment analysis and gender detection as part of AraNet, our focus is more on putting together the toolkit itself and providing strong baselines that can be compared to. Hence, although we provide some baseline models for some of the tasks, we do not explicitly compare to previous research since most existing works either exploit smaller data (and so it will not be a fair comparison), use methods pre-dating BERT (and so will likely be outperformed by our models) . For many of the tasks we model, there have not been standard benchmarks for comparisons across models. This makes it difficult to measure progress and identify areas worthy of allocating efforts and budgets.

A: What models did they compare to?

Q: Given a news Twitter account, we read its tweets from the account's timeline. Then we sort the tweets by the posting date in ascending way and we split them into $N$ chunks. Each chunk consists of a sorted sequence of tweets labeled by the label of its corresponding account. Consequently, we investigate ways to detect suspicious accounts by considering their tweets in groups (chunks). Our hypothesis is that suspicious accounts have a unique pattern in posting tweet sequences. Since their intention is to mislead, the way they transition from one set of tweets to the next has a hidden signature, biased by their intentions. Therefore, reading these tweets in chunks has the potential to improve the detection of the fake news accounts.

A: How are chunks defined?

Q: In order to derive the discourse features, an entity grid is constructed by feeding the document through an NLP pipeline to identify salient entities. Two flavors of discourse features are created by populating the entity grid with either (i) grammatical relations (GR) or (ii) RST discourse relations (RST).  Denoting a feature as such with INLINEFORM4 , we construct the pooling vector INLINEFORM5 for the char-bigrams, and concatenate INLINEFORM6 to INLINEFORM7 before feeding the resulting vector to the softmax layer.

A:
How are discourse features incorporated into the model?
