The number sense: how the mind creates mathematics
Abstract
L'A. propose quelques observations concernant l'ouvrage de Stanislas Dehaene The number sense. How the mind creates mathematics (1997) qui explore tous les aspects de la relation entre les hommes et les nombres : la numerosite chez les autres animaux, la numerosite et le calcul simple chez les bebes, l'histoire de l'expression du nombre dans le langage, l'histoire de la notation du nombre, le circuit neuronal necessaire pour faire de l'arithmetique et du calcul, la localisation dans le cerveau, l'ordre mathematique de l'univers, etc ... L'A. examine ici en particulier les questions portant sur la relation entre les nombres et le langage dans une perspective cognitive, puis explique ce que Dehaene entend par le sens du nombre en caracterisant les mathematiques comme une formalisation progressive de nos intuitions sur les ensembles, le nombre, l'espace, le temps et la logique

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
