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.

Ex Input:
We compared several summarization methods which can be categorized into three groups: unsupervised, non-neural supervised, and neural supervised methods.  As a baseline, we used Lead-N which selects INLINEFORM0 leading sentences as the summary. For all methods, we extracted 3 sentences as the summary since it is the median number of sentences in the gold summaries that we found in our exploratory analysis. Lead-3 baseline performs really well and outperforms almost all the other models, which is not surprising and even consistent with other work that for news summarization, Lead-N baseline is surprisingly hard to beat.

Ex Output:
What was the best performing baseline?


Ex Input:
Since we were also interested in whether argumentation differs across registers, we included four different registers — namely (1) user comments to newswire articles or to blog posts, (2) posts in discussion forums (forum posts), (3) blog posts, and (4) newswire articles. 

Ex Output:
How is the data in the new corpus come sourced?


Ex Input:
Comparing the natural and artificial sources of our parallel data wrt. several linguistic and distributional properties, we observe that (see Fig. FIGREF21 - FIGREF22 ):

artificial sources are on average shorter than natural ones: when using BT, cases where the source is shorter than the target are rarer; cases when they have the same length are more frequent.

automatic word alignments between artificial sources tend to be more monotonic than when using natural sources, as measured by the average Kendall INLINEFORM0 of source-target alignments BIBREF22 : for French-English the respective numbers are 0.048 (natural) and 0.018 (artificial); for German-English 0.068 and 0.053.  The intuition is that properties (i) and (ii) should help translation as compared to natural source, while property (iv) should be detrimental.

Ex Output:

what is their explanation for the effectiveness of back-translation?
