Natural Language Processing for Solving Simple Word Problems
Sowmya S. Sundaram, Deepak Khemani · International conference natural language processing · 2015
This paper describes our system which solves simple arithmetic word problems. The system takes a word problem described in natural language, extracts information required for representation, orders the facts presented, applies procedures and derives the answer. It then displays this answer in natural language. The emphasis of this paper is on the natural language processing(NLP) techniques used to retrieve the relevant information from the English word problem. The system shows improvements over existing systems.
