In this task, you will be presented with a context from an academic paper and a question based on the context. You have to classify the questions into "Extractive", "Abstractive", or "Yes-no" questions. Extractive questions can be answered by concatenating extracts taken from a context into a summary while answering abstractive questions involves paraphrasing the context using novel sentences. Yes-no question is a question whose expected answer is one of two choices, one that affirms the question and one that denies the question. Typically, the choices are either yes or no.

For example, the original sentence 'We went shop on Saturday' and the corrected version 'We went shopping on Saturday' would produce the following pattern:

(VVD shop_VV0 II, VVD shopping_VVG II)

After collecting statistics from the background corpus, errors can be inserted into error-free text. The learned patterns are now reversed, looking for the correct side of the tuple in the input sentence. We only use patterns with frequency INLINEFORM0 , which yields a total of 35,625 patterns from our training data.
Question: What textual patterns are extracted?
Extractive

One common point in all the approaches yet has been the use of only textual features available in the dataset. Our model not only incorporates textual features, modeled using BiLSTM and augmented with an attention mechanism, but also considers related images for the task.
Question: What are the differences with previous applications of neural networks for this task?
Abstractive

In a recent work on sentiment analysis in Turkish BIBREF10, they learn embeddings using Turkish social media. They use the word2vec algorithm, create several unsupervised hand-crafted features, generate document vectors and feed them as input into the support vector machines (SVM) approach. We outperform this baseline approach using more effective word embeddings and supervised hand-crafted features.
Question: What baseline method is used?
Abstractive
