Integration of Formal Concept Analysis in a Knowledge-Based Assistant

To build a knowledge base for an intelligent help system, as Aran, is an essential and difficult phase. In Aran, a knowledge based assistant to help users in the use of UNIX systems, we integrate the traditional manual approach of conceptual information structuring with a complementary one based on Formal Concept Analysis (FCA). FCA allow us to obtain the domain formal concepts (semi) automatically and to organise the information around them.
