What is the Knowledge Model?
The Knowledge Model is the core of how Chelle works. It's a structured representation of everything in your source material — concepts, their connections, and citations back to the original text.
Why a Knowledge Model?
Most AI tools generate content from general knowledge. The results sound reasonable but aren't grounded in anything specific. Chelle takes a different approach: it builds a Knowledge Model from your textbook, and everything it generates comes from that model.
This means:
- No hallucinations — every claim traces to your source
- No generic filler — content is specific to your material
- Full coverage — nothing from your textbook gets lost
- Traceable citations — you can verify any generated content
What's in the model?
A Knowledge Model contains three types of elements:
- Concepts — the key ideas, terms, and principles in your material
- Connections — relationships between concepts (prerequisites, related topics, etc.)
- Citations — links back to specific locations in your source text
