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.

Question: SVM: We define 3 sets of features to characterize each question. The first is a simple bag-of-words set of features over the question (SVM-BOW), the second is bag-of-words features of the question as well as length of the question in words (SVM-BOW + LEN), and lastly we extract bag-of-words features, length of the question in words as well as part-of-speech tags for the question (SVM-BOW + LEN + POS). This results in vectors of 200, 201 and 228 dimensions respectively, which are provided to an SVM with a linear kernel. No-Answer Baseline (NA) : Most of the questions we receive are difficult to answer in a legally-sound way on the basis of information present in the privacy policy. We establish a simple baseline to quantify the effect of identifying every question as unanswerable. Word Count Baseline : To quantify the effect of using simple lexical matching to answer the questions, we retrieve the top candidate policy sentences for each question using a word count baseline BIBREF53, which counts the number of question words that also appear in a sentence. We include the top 2, 3 and 5 candidates as baselines. Human Performance: We pick each reference answer provided by an annotator, and compute the F1 with respect to the remaining references, as described in section 4.2.1. Each reference answer is treated as the prediction, and the remaining n-1 answers are treated as the gold reference. The average of the maximum F1 across all reference answers is computed as the human baseline. 
 Question: Were other baselines tested to compare with the neural baseline?

Answer: Extractive


Question: In cooperation with the ruling regime, Weibo sets strict control over the content published under its service BIBREF0. According to Zhu et al. zhu-etal:2013, Weibo uses a variety of strategies to target censorable posts, ranging from keyword list filtering to individual user monitoring. Among all posts that are eventually censored, nearly 30% of them are censored within 5-30 minutes, and nearly 90% within 24 hours BIBREF1. We hypothesize that the former are done automatically, while the latter are removed by human censors. 
 Question: Is is known whether Sina Weibo posts are censored by humans or some automatic classifier?

Answer: Yes-no


Question: For the sake of interpretability, we will also project back coefficients from the embeddings as well as PCA models into the dummy variable space. 
 Question: How do their interpret the coefficients?

Answer:
Abstractive
