— Goals — Advance techniques for math-aware search and semantic analysis of mathematical notation and texts

— Collection — Math Stack Exchange community QA forum(~1.1 million questions)

— Formula Representations — Appearance: the arrangement of symbols on writing lines.• LaTeX• Presentation MathML

Semantic: operators, arguments, order of operations • Content MathML

Task 1: Finding Answers to Math QuestionsGiven a posted question as a query, search all answer posts and

return relevant answers.

Topics and Runs • Goal: Create 100 topics using questions containing text and at least one formula • Queries may be processed using either text, math, or both text and math• Manual and automatic runs will be collected

Evaluation • Top-k hits (e.g., top-20) + additional manual runs by organizers will be pooled

• Most topics assessed once, some doubly-assessed to check agreement• Assessors will include volunteers from teams, along with hired assessors

During assessment, we propose organizing topics into three sets: (1) all topics, (2) topics where the text seems to characterize the topic on its own, and (3) topics where the formula(s) seem to characterize the topic on their own.We propose using extended inferred Average Precision (xinfAP) over the three topic sets as the primary measure to support comparison with future systems that do not contribute to the judgement pool

Task 2: Formula SearchGiven a formula query from a question, search formulas in question and answer posts and return relevant formulas.

Topics and Runs • Goal: Create 50 topics using formulas extracted from topics in Task 1

• Formulas provided in LaTeX, Presentation MathML, and Content MathML• Annotators create human-readable narratives to define relevant formulas, e.g.,

subexpressions, alternative notation, simplification, applications in specific fields, etc.• Manual and automatic runs will be collected

Evaluation • Top-k formulas from participants + additional manual runs by organizers will be pooled

• Assessors can use formula hits + pools from Task 1 to identify similar formulas• Most topics assessed once some doubly-assessed to check agreement• Assessors include volunteers from teams along with hired assessors

• We propose using extended inferred Average Precision (xinfAP) over formula topicsas the primary measure for comparing systems

I believe this is an arithmo-geometric series. You can find information here:artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/… Jason Kim Jul 7 '18 at 19:11

No need to use Taylor series, this can be derived in a similar way to the formula forgeometric series. Let's find a general formula for the following sum:

= ! .#$ ∑!= 1

$%!

Notice that

−%#$ #$ = −$ +%$+ 1 ∑$

%!

Why dont you try and solve these Integrals yourself. Browsing through your most recent questions,you have had this type of question almost exclusively. Other users get downvoted for this. I see noreason not to hint the same to you and at least show some effort. -1 CBenni Mar 20 '13 at 17:01
