Abstract

(Poster) We propose a spreadsheet-based knowledge acquisition (KA) approach for lowering the familiarization hurdle and thus increasing the ease of use and user experience for domain experts. Thus, by enabling experts to (mostly) autonomously participate in KA, the approach adds to the overall diversity of today’s KA tool landscape.
