Search Result Visualisation with xFIND
نویسندگان
چکیده
The xFIND gatherer broker architecture provides a wealth of metadata, which can be used to provide sophisticated search functionality. Local or remote documents are indexed and summaries and metadata stored on an xFIND broker (server). An xFIND client can search a particular broker and access rich metadata for search result presentation, without having to fetch the original documents themselves. Search result sets are not only presented as a traditional ranked list, but also in an interactive scatterplot (Search Result Explorer) and using dynamic thematic clustering (VisIslands).

متن کاملComparative Study of Search Engine Result Visualisation: Ranked Lists Versus Graphs
Typically search engine results (SERs) are presented in a ranked list of decreasing estimated relevance to user queries. While familiar to users, ranked lists do not show inherent connections between SERs, e.g. whether SERs are hyperlinked or authored by the same source. Such potentially useful connections between SERs can be displayed as graphs. We present a preliminary comparative study of ra...
متن کاملUsing Hierarchical Clustering and Summarisation Approaches for Web Retrieval: Glasgow at the TREC 2002 Interactive Track
Current search engines are typified as having a lack of precision, coupled with an elongated ranked list style of result presentation. When combined, these factors make relevant data extraction increasingly complex. The main investigation of our participation in the Interactive Track of TREC 2002 is to assess the effectiveness of new visualisation techniques for displaying the results of search...
متن کاملDesktop Search Engine Visualisation and Evaluation
This work investigates the potential of applying a suite of visualisation for query processing in a desktop search environment. While each of these visualizations may not be totally new on its own, we have attempted to add value to each one by endowing it with useful features, and to seamless integrate them to allow easy switching of views, thereby providing the novelty in this work to create a...
