We propose a new evaluation for automatic solvers for algebra word problems, which can identify mistakes that existing evaluations overlook. Our proposal is to evaluate such solvers using derivations, ...

Although algebra is a prerequisite for higher mathematics, few studies have examined the mathematical and cognitive capabilities that contribute to the development of algebra word problems solving ...

The focus of this study was connections among 3 aspects of mathematical cognition at 2 nd grade: calculations, word problems, and pre-algebraic knowledge. We extended the literature, which is ...

Abstract: Solving mathematical word problems (MWPs) automatically is challenging, primarily due to the semantic gap between human-readable words and machine-understandable logics. Despite the long ...

Abstract: Among the statistical approaches for math word problem solving, template based approaches have shown to be more robust against a wide spectrum of math word problems, while other approaches ...

This paper reviews the research literature with respect to the contributions to the students’ difficulties in their algebra learning in order to understand the students’ difficulties in algebra ...
