Information Extraction Tool Text2ALM: From Narratives to Action Language System Descriptions

Craig Olson, Yuliya Lierler • Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science (2019)

In this work we design a narrative understanding tool Text2ALM. This tool uses an action language ALM to perform inferences on complex interactions of events described in narratives. The methodology used to implement the Text2ALM system was...

Artificial intelligence and statistics

Bin Yu, Karl Kumbier • Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering (2018)

Artificial intelligence (AI) is intrinsically data-driven. It calls for the application of statistical concepts through human-machine collaboration during the generation of data, the development of algorithms, and the evaluation of results....

Early math interest and the development of math skills.

Paige H. Fisher, Jennifer Dobbs‐Oates, Greta L. Doctoroff, David Harvey Arnold • Journal of Educational Psychology (2012)

Prior models suggest that math attitudes and ability might strengthen each other over time in a reciprocal fashion (Ma, 1997). The current study investigated the relationship between math interest and skill both concurrently and over time i...

Math Anxiety

Sian Leah Beilock, Erin A. Maloney • Policy Insights from the Behavioral and Brain Sciences (2015)

The United States is currently not producing enough graduates in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields to meet the demands of a technology-dependent society. Although there are many efforts in place to improve STEM educat...

Math Anxiety, Working Memory, and Math Achievement in Early Elementary School

Gerardo Ramirez, Elizabeth A. Gunderson, Susan Cohen Levine, Sian Leah Beilock • Journal of Cognition and Development (2013)

Although math anxiety is associated with poor mathematical knowledge and low course grades (Ashcraft & Krause, Citation2007), research establishing a connection between math anxiety and math achievement has generally been conducted with you...

Intergenerational Effects of Parents’ Math Anxiety on Children’s Math Achievement and Anxiety

Erin A. Maloney, Gerardo Ramirez, Elizabeth A. Gunderson, Susan Cohen Levine et al. • Psychological Science (2015)

A large field study of children in first and second grade explored how parents' anxiety about math relates to their children's math achievement. The goal of the study was to better understand why some students perform worse in math than oth...

When Math Hurts: Math Anxiety Predicts Pain Network Activation in Anticipation of Doing Math

Ian M. Lyons, Sian Leah Beilock • PLoS ONE (2012)

Math can be difficult, and for those with high levels of mathematics-anxiety (HMAs), math is associated with tension, apprehension, and fear. But what underlies the feelings of dread effected by math anxiety? Are HMAs' feelings about math m...

A meta-analysis of the relation between math anxiety and math achievement.

Connie Barroso, Colleen M. Ganley, Amanda L. McGraw, Elyssa A. Geer et al. • Psychological Bulletin (2020)

Meta-analyses from the 1990s have previously established a significant, small-to-moderate, and negative correlation between math achievement and math anxiety. Since these publications, research has continued to investigate this relation wit...

Female teachers’ math anxiety affects girls’ math achievement

Sian Leah Beilock, Elizabeth A. Gunderson, Gerardo Ramirez, Susan Cohen Levine • Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (2010)

People's fear and anxiety about doing math--over and above actual math ability--can be an impediment to their math achievement. We show that when the math-anxious individuals are female elementary school teachers, their math anxiety carries...

Is Math Anxiety Always Bad for Math Learning? The Role of Math Motivation

Zhe Wang, Sarah L. Lukowski, Sara Ann Hart, Ian M. Lyons et al. • Psychological Science (2015)

The linear relations between math anxiety and math cognition have been frequently studied. However, the relations between anxiety and performance on complex cognitive tasks have been repeatedly demonstrated to follow a curvilinear fashion. ...

Fourier Truncation Regularization Method for a Time-Fractional Backward Diffusion Problem with a Nonlinear Source

Fan Yang, Ping Fan, Xiao-Xiao Li, Xin-Yi Ma • Mathematics (2019)

In present paper, we deal with a backward diffusion problem for a time-fractional diffusion problem with a nonlinear source in a strip domain. We all know this nonlinear problem is severely ill-posed, i.e., the solution does not depend cont...
