Zusammenfassung
In a certain sense, explanations in computer science are
answers to questions and often an explanatory dialog is necessary to
support users of a software tool. In this paper, we introduce the concept
of intuitive explanations representing the first explanations in
an explanatory dialog. Based on an abstract approach of explanation
generation we present the generic explanation component Koios++
applying Semantic Technologies to derive intuitive explanations. We
illustrate our generation approach by means of the information extraction
system smartFIX and put a special emphasis on visualizing
explanations as semantic networks using a special layouting algorithm.
smartFIX itself is a product portfolio for knowledge-based extraction
of data from any document format. The system automatically
determines the document type and extracts all relevant data for the respective
business process. In this context, Koios++ is used to justify
extraction results.
