Robust Understanding of Word Problems with Extraneous Information
arXiv:math/0701393
Abstract
Understanding of free-format multi-step arithmetic word problems with extraneous information is discussed. A model including a full set of general skills necessary for understanding such problems was developed and computer implemented. The validity of the simulation was confirmed by testing on a variety of word problems with extraneous information. The results of this study show the way for moving from an intuitive understanding of word problems to a conscious and controlled process.
