TASK DEFINITION: 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.
PROBLEM: In this paper, we first highlight the importance of TV and radio broadcast as a source of data for ASR, and the potential impact it can have. We then perform a statistical analysis of gender representation in a data set composed of four state-of-the-art corpora of French broadcast, widely used within the speech community. Finally we question the impact of such a representation on the systems developed on this data, through the perspective of an ASR system.

SOLUTION: What tasks did they use to evaluate performance for male and female speakers?

PROBLEM: mcdonald:11 established that, when no treebank annotations are available in the target language, training on multiple source languages outperforms training on one (i.e., multi-source model transfer outperforms single-source model transfer). Following guo:16, for each target language, we train the parser on six other languages in the Google universal dependency treebanks version 2.0 (de, en, es, fr, it, pt, sv, excluding whichever is the target language), and we use gold coarse POS tags.

SOLUTION: How does the model work if no treebank is available?

PROBLEM: In this study, we investigate the performance of our proposed models on WSJ BIBREF5 .

SOLUTION:
Which dataset do they use?
