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: We recruited 100 crowdworkers on Amazon Mechanical Turk (AMT) and measured completion times and accuracies for typing randomly sampled sentences from the Yelp corpus.

SOLUTION: What user variations have been tested?

PROBLEM: 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).

SOLUTION: How are some nodes initially connected based on text structure?

PROBLEM: First, we propose a class of recurrent-like neural networks for NLP tasks that satisfy the differential equation DISPLAYFORM0

where DISPLAYFORM0

and where INLINEFORM0 and INLINEFORM1 are learned functions. INLINEFORM2 corresponds to traditional RNNs, with INLINEFORM3 . For INLINEFORM4 , this takes the form of RNN cells with either nested internal memories or dependencies that extend temporally beyond the immediately previous hidden state.

SOLUTION:
What novel class of recurrent-like networks is proposed?
