Abstract

In previous papers [5, 4] we have proved the usefulness of Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) as an inductive technique that elicits knowledge embedded in a case library. The dependency knowledge implicitly contained in the case base is captured during the FCA process in the form of dependence rules among the attributes describing the cases. A substitution-based adaptation process is proposed that profits from these dependence rules since substituting an attribute may require to substitute dependant attributes. Dependence rules will guide an interactive query formulation process which favors retrieving cases where successful adaptations can be accomplished. In this paper we exemplify the use of FCA to help query formulation in an application to generate Spanish poetry versions of texts provided by the user.
