Teacher:The input is taken from a negotiation between two participants who take the role of campsite neighbors and negotiate for Food, Water, and Firewood packages, based on their individual preferences and requirements. Given an utterance and recent dialogue context containing past 3 utterances (wherever available), output Yes if the utterance contains the small-talk strategy, otherwise output No. small-talk is a cooperative negotiation strategy. It is used for discussing topics apart from the negotiation, in an attempt to build a rapport with the opponent. For example, discussing how the opponent is doing during the pandemic or sharing excitement for the camping trip.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: Context: 'That sounds awful 😮. Would you settle for you taking two of the water packages and leaving me one?' 'I guess if I can have 2 food and you can have 2 firewood' 'Some of my firewood is wet (and basically useless unless it dries in time). So how about 3 firewood and 1 water for me and you can have the rest. '
Utterance: 'Ok that sounds good'
