Learning To Use Formulas To Solve Simple Arithmetic Problems
Solving simple arithmetic word problems is one of the challenges in Natural Language Understanding. This paper presents a novel method to learn to use formulas to solve simple arithmetic word problems. Our system, analyzes each of the sentences to identify the variables and their attributes; and automatically maps this information into a higher level representation. It then uses that representa...
متن کاملOn the Relation Between Production and Verification Tasks in the Psychology of Simple Arithmetic
Most theories of arithmetic assume that verification tasks are performed by producing an answer and comparing it with the presented answer. Verification is production plus comparison. We tested this hypothesis by imposing delays between arithmetic arguments and answers, in theory imposing delays between production and comparison. Long delays should absorb effects on production, and reaction tim...
متن کاملSpecifying executive representations and processes in number generation tasks.
The Interacting Cognitive Subsystems framework, ICS (Barnard, 1985) proposes that central executive phenomena can be accounted for by two autonomous subsystems, which process different forms of meaning: propositional and schematic (implicational) meanings. The apparent supervisory role of the executive arises from limitations on the exchange of information between these and other cognitive subs...
متن کاملCognitive fatigue of executive processes: interaction between interference resolution tasks.
A resource depletion framework motivated a novel strategy for investigating whether the central executive is unitary or separable into relatively independent subprocesses. The idea that tasks with overlapping neural representations may involve similar executive components was also critical to our approach. Of particular interest were tasks requiring resolution of interference among competing re...
متن کاملArithmetic difficulties in children with cerebral palsy are related to executive function and working memory.
BACKGROUND Although it is believed that children with cerebral palsy are at high risk for learning difficulties and arithmetic difficulties in particular, few studies have investigated this issue. METHODS Arithmetic ability was longitudinally assessed in children with cerebral palsy in special (n = 41) and mainstream education (n = 16) and controls in mainstream education (n = 16). Second gra...
