ALIEN is a knowledge based system that modelizes the economist's behaviour. It is used at the French Statistical Institute and at Eurostat. It can be seen as an assistant that helps economists to write economic diagnosis in natural language as well as a human economist could do.
ALIEN is very useful for analysis in very large data base and/or for regular diagnosis. It studies the shape of all series in an application, the instantaneous relationship and determines what is important and what is not.
ALIEN is used under a user friendly software (DARWIN) developed for Windows 95. DARWIN builds text generation with ALIEN, but also constructs graphs and tables, helps the user to analyze the data base and the semantic of an application. Last, DARWIN builds a nice layout of the mixed comment, graph and table with WINWORD or an equivalent software.
