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, ...

Researchers have developed a new computer system that can automatically solve the type of word problems common in introductory algebra classes. The work could lead to educational tools that identify ...

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 ...

Automatically solving algebra word problems has raised considerable interest recently. Existing state-of-the-art approaches mainly rely on learning from human annotated equations. In this paper, we ...

The Symbolic Algebra Coding Examples repository is a collection of examples showcasing the capabilities of various symbolic algebra systems. The repository contains code snippets and scripts that ...

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 ...

“Danny has 564 tomatoes. He then buys 623 carrots. How long will it take him to get home?” This scenario is what many people picture when we mention word problems. Many educators think they’re taboo.
