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.

Q: We test the character and word-level variants by predicting hashtags for a held-out test set of posts. 
 Question: What other tasks do they test their method on?

A: Abstractive

Q: In this section, we first describe a baseline method inspired by the “align to segment” of BIBREF12, BIBREF13. We then propose two extensions providing the model with a signal relevant to the segmentation process, so as to move towards a joint learning of segmentation and alignment. 
 Question: Does the paper report any alignment-only baseline?

A: Yes-no

Q: In our final system, after pre-training the forward and backward LMs separately, we remove the top layer softmax and concatenate the forward and backward LM embeddings to form bidirectional LM embeddings, i.e., INLINEFORM0 .  
 Question: how are the bidirectional lms obtained?

A:
Abstractive
