Teacher:In this task, you will be presented with a context from an academic paper and a question separated with a 
. You have to answer the question based on the context.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: Motivated by this, we introduce resolution mode variables $\Pi = \lbrace \pi _1, \ldots , \pi _n\rbrace $ , where for each mention $j$ the variable $\pi _j \in \lbrace str, prec, attr\rbrace $ indicates in which mode the mention should be resolved. In our model, we define three resolution modes — string-matching (str), precise-construct (prec), and attribute-matching (attr) — and $\Pi $ is deterministic when $D$ is given (i.e. $P(\Pi |D)$ is a point distribution). We determine $\pi _j$ for each mention $m_j$ in the following way:

$\pi _j = str$ , if there exists a mention $m_i, i < j$ such that the two mentions satisfy the String Match sieve, the Relaxed String Match sieve, or the Strict Head Match A sieve in the Stanford multi-sieve system BIBREF1 .

$\pi _j = prec$ , if there exists a mention $m_i, i < j$ such that the two mentions satisfy the Speaker Identification sieve, or the Precise Constructs sieve.

$\pi _j = attr$ , if there is no mention $m_i, i < j$ satisfies the above two conditions. 
 Question: Are resolution mode variables hand crafted?

No
