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: 'That sounds good to me.' 'Do you want any of the firewood? Would you be okay if I got two packages of the firewood? ' 'It's been pretty cold at night.  Do you think you would be able to carry the two packages of firewood?'
Utterance: 'I should be fine, thank you. 🙂 It will be a little bit of work hauling all of my gear and supplies but after I set up camp, it will be smooth sailing. '

SOLUTION: Yes

PROBLEM: Context: 'Oh, that's terrible.  I'm sorry that happened.  I need the water for my child.  They seem dehydrated and disoriented.  My husband has also caught a cold and has been having chills.  I thought the extra firewood would help him feel better.' 'Oh my gosh.  You are not having an easy trip.  If your children are dehydrated and disoriented, perhaps you should get them to emergency care immediately.  I would like to provide you will all of the water in the meantime, but that would leave me with none at all.  I wouldn't have your husband out of the tent with chills.  Perhaps you should keep him bundled in your cabin.  I forgot my portable propane grill - so I would need some firewood.  How about I take 2 waters, 1 firewood and all of the food?' 'Oh dear, you spilled your water and forgot your grill?  You mentioned that you had a car.  Perhaps you could take a quick drive to grab some extra water.  For now, I definitely agree that you need 1 extra water and 1 firewood.  I will need 2 of the extra food portions though.  How does that sound? '
Utterance: 'Wish it was an easy car ride.  We're miles and miles from a store and it's getting dark.  I don't do well driving in the dark.  I think we might be getting close to agreement.  As I understand it:  you would get 1 water, 2 firewood and 2 food portions?  Is that correct?'

SOLUTION: Yes

PROBLEM: Context: 'Hi! I am looking forward to making a deal with you today.' 'Hello, that sounds good. How are you today?'
Utterance: 'I am doing okay but am in need of some supplies. What about you?'

SOLUTION:
Yes
