Challange creation

Year is normalized as follows:

''' days_in_year = 366 if is_leap else 365 normalized = d.year + ((day_of_year-1) / days_in_year) '''

train, dev, test split is 80%, 10%, 10% randomly

note that there are very similar headlines in the data

I did not make any effort to prevent from going one sentence like this to the train and second one to the test.

I used a first category in the classification task. E.g there is "world" instead of "world.us" as on original dataset.
