Mathematical word problem categorization using Machine Learning
Keywords:
Word Problem, Deep Learning, Machine LearningAbstract
Text categorization is a fundamental processing of Natural Language task. Mathematical word problem has a wide variety of classes to categorize, for the further processing of word problems. The classification of word problems plays an important role for text categorization, prediction of algebraic equation for a particular problem in the segment. Word problem classification will be a step towards word problem solving automatically. In this paper comparison of machine learning classifiers such as SVM, Decision Tree, k-Nearest Neighbour, Neural Network and Convolutional Neural Network are used for classification of four types of mathematical problems taking from elementary grade level. Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division problems are the categories chosen from class 3 and class 4 mathematics workbook.
