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: 'you are right we both need the wood, how about i give 1 wood, all of my water and 2 food and you give 2 wood and 1 food?' 'Where are you camping? Perhaps we can compromise by having our tents nearby each other, which would be like we each get three firewood? I am not willing to trade my package of marshmallows, though.' 'i hope we can come to a compromise 🙂, what is another priority of yours besides the wood?'
Utterance: 'Food is a second priority for me, as I will be metal-detecting as well, & cannot risk fainting from the heat. How about I give you two firewood (I don't think we can "share", haha), you can give me two food packages, and two water packages.'

SOLUTION: No

PROBLEM: Context: 'Can you help out? I can easily dehydrated can you give all the water packages to me?' 'I can spare a little as I am currently taking medication that requires me to drink a lot. I can give you 2 bottles of water if you can give me 3 firewood' 'I can't give you all the 3 firewood. We can share them. I can give you 1 firewood? Because I am too scared about dark. ☹️'
Utterance: 'I could give you 1 water for 1 firewood, most of my firewood got wet so is almost useless . Would you perhaps except some food for another unit of firewood?'

SOLUTION: No

PROBLEM: Context: 'Looking forward to the trip.  They gave up the bare essentials but I could really use some extra supplies.🙂'
Utterance: 'I could too, I am a little short on a few things!'

SOLUTION:
No
