hey, 
I was looking into the NPS_Chat dataset. 
https://faculty.nps.edu/cmartell/NPSChat.htm 

wrt the mentioned paper on the above page 

[3] A. Stolcke, K. Ries, N. Coccaro, E. Shriberg, R. Bates, D. Jurafsky, P.

Taylor, R. Martin, C. Van Ess-Dykema and M. Meteer, "Dialogue act modeling for

automatic tagging and recognition of conversational speech," Computational

Linguistics, vol. 26, no. 3, pp. 339-373, 2000.

(https://arxiv.org/pdf/cs/0006023.pdf)

there is no category of DECLARATIVE-QUESTION or DECLARATIVE in the dataset

import nltk
nltk.download('nps_chat')

classes = set()
for p in posts:
classes.add(p.get('class'))
print(classes) #OUTPUT #{'Reject', 'Emotion', 'Greet', 'Other', 'ynQuestion', 'Accept', 'System', 'Continuer', 'nAnswer', 'Emphasis', 'Bye', 'Statement', 'yAnswer', 'whQuestion', 'Clarify'}

Can you please clearify why it not among one of the classes?
