Mathematics, like many other scientific endeavors, is increasingly using artificial intelligence. Of course, math is the backbone of AI, but mathematicians are also turning to these tools for tasks ...

In the study, 299 undergraduate students between the ages of 18 and 33 were asked to solve a series of compound remote associates (CRA) problems, a standard test of creative problem-solving in which ...

Do you stare at a math word problem and feel completely stuck? You're not alone. These problems mix reading comprehension with complex math concepts, making them a common hurdle for students. The good ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

Abstract: Unit commitment problems are operation optimization problems solved by independent system operators (ISOs). These problems generally need to be solved within a limited time, and the quality ...

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 ...

In recent years, the artificial intelligence (AI) landscape has shifted from quiet curiosity to relentless noise. Conference taglines, vendor solicitations, and slide decks all seem to begin with the ...

Amateur mathematicians are using artificial intelligence chatbots to solve long-standing problems, in a move that has taken professionals by surprise. While the problems in question aren’t the most ...

Among high school students and adults, girls and women are much more likely to use traditional, step-by-step algorithms to solve basic math problems – such as lining up numbers to add, starting with ...

Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly reflecting shapes to tile a surface, researchers uncovered a method that links ...

Mathematics be a tricky subject, and many students struggle to get the hang of it, finding it difficult to solve problems and equations in class. It requires a special sort of attention that one can’t ...
