TASK DEFINITION: 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.
PROBLEM: Context: 'I am doing okay but am in need of some supplies. What about you?' 'Same here. My kids are really looking forward to this. What is most important to you?' 'Firewood! I need it to cook my food and also to stay warm. What about you?'
Utterance: 'That is the same for me as well. My kids were really looking forward to making s'mores and telling stories by the campfire. That's all they've been talking about'

PROBLEM: Context: 'Yes. And then I'll get 2 food and you'll get 1 food. And then I'll get 2 firewood and you'll get 1 firewood. How's that?' 'That sounds good to me.  It looks like it will be a good weekend for both of us.' 'I think so too! I hope that hurricane doesn't cause any issues to our plans!'
