In this task, you will be presented with a context from an academic paper and you have to write an answerable question based on the context. Your questions can be extractive, abstractive, or yes-no questions.

[EX Q]: In an offline step, we organize the content of each instance in a graph where each node represents a sentence from the passages and the question. Then, we add edges between nodes using the following topology:

we fully connect nodes that represent sentences from the same passage (dotted-black);

we fully connect nodes that represent the first sentence of each passage (dotted-red);

we add an edge between the question and every node for each passage (dotted-blue).
[EX A]: How are some nodes initially connected based on text structure?

[EX Q]: We compared several summarization methods which can be categorized into three groups: unsupervised, non-neural supervised, and neural supervised methods.  As a baseline, we used Lead-N which selects INLINEFORM0 leading sentences as the summary. For all methods, we extracted 3 sentences as the summary since it is the median number of sentences in the gold summaries that we found in our exploratory analysis. Lead-3 baseline performs really well and outperforms almost all the other models, which is not surprising and even consistent with other work that for news summarization, Lead-N baseline is surprisingly hard to beat.
[EX A]: What was the best performing baseline?

[EX Q]: Also, we compared our models with other existing works on this dataset including OpATT BIBREF6 and Neural Content Planning with conditional copy (NCP+CC) BIBREF4.
[EX A]:
What is the state-of-the-art model for the task?
