The search for information through data analysis implies the use of automated data mining techniques. There are many tools avaliable that can apply combinations of such techniques, but few have the ability to guide the user during the knowledge acquisition process. In this paper we present Lupa, a data mining environment that not only provides common KDD functionalities, but also includes means of assisting, in an “intelligent” way, the user's decision making. Assistance is provided with regards to domain modeling, algorithm selection, and in the subjective evaluation (semantics) of the results.
