During my time as a learning support math teacher, I always had a daily word problem on my board for students to work on when they first walked into my classroom. To be completely honest, this ...

This repository provides a solution to the standard Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (CVRPTW). In a CVRPTW, we aim to optimize the routes of a fleet of vehicles serving customers ...

Abstract: Unit commitment problems can be solved more efficiently with mixed integer linear programming solvers when more preferred hyperparameters are configured. We propose a learning approach to ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

For the C implementation on GPUs (recommended for benchmarking), please visit the following repository: $$ \begin{array}{ll} \underset{x \in \mathbb{R}^n}{\min} \quad & \langle c, x \rangle \\ \text{s ...

Word problems try and tell students a story about the math problem in front of them. They are a useful way to connect abstract numbers to concrete situations, so students can learn early on to apply ...

Standard computer implementations of Dantzig's simplex method for linear programming are based upon forming the inverse of the basic matrix and updating the inverse ...

Working memory is like a mental chalkboard we use to store temporary information while executing other tasks. Scientists worked with more than 200 elementary students to test their working memory, ...

A new study from the University of Kansas explores the role of working memory in word problem-solving for students with and without math difficulties. Researchers found that using interventions to ...

Practical word problems are often considered one of the most complex parts of elementary school mathematics. They require students to understand the context of a math problem, identify what the ...
