Brain Correlates of Mathematical Competence in Processing Mathematical Representations
The ability to extract numerical information from different representation formats (e.g., equations, tables, or diagrams) is a key component of mathematical competence but little is known about its neural correlate. Previous studies comparing mathematically less and more competent adults have focused on mental arithmetic and reported differences in left angular gyrus (AG) activity which were in...
متن کاملBrain Networks Supporting Execution of Mathematical Skills versus Acquisition of New Mathematical Competence
This fMRI study examines how students extend their mathematical competence. Students solved a set of algebra-like problems. These problems included Regular Problems that have a known solution technique and Exception Problems that but did not have a known technique. Two distinct networks of activity were uncovered. There was a Cognitive Network that was mainly active during the solution of probl...
متن کاملMathematical Representations of Development Theories
In this paper we explore the consequences of particular stage linkage structures for the evolution of a population. We first argue the importance of constructing "dynamic" models of developmental theories and show through a series of examples the implications of various stage connections for population movements. In discussing dynamic models, one thrust of our comments is to identify the sorts ...
متن کاملMathematical Representations for Web Services
Specifying at a technical level the semantic content of computational models and the services they may provide requires mathematical descriptions. Computer source code, such as C, C++, or Java, provides, at an algorithmic level, a relatively primitive form of unambiguous, mathematical specification. These computer languages are not as useful for specifying requirements, exposing assumptions, va...
متن کاملMathematical Language Processing Project
In natural language, words and phrases themselves imply the semantics. In contrast, the meaning of identifiers in mathematical formulae is undefined. Thus scientists must study the context to decode the meaning. The Mathematical Language Processing (MLP) project aims to support that process. In this paper, we compare two approaches to discover identifier-definition tuples. At first we use a sim...
