An exploratory evaluation of three interfaces for browsing large hierarchical tables of contents
1994
ACM Transactions on Information Systems
Three different interfaces were used to browse a large (1296 items) table of contents. ...
We found that both the expand/contract and multi-pane interfaces produced significantly faster times than the stable interface for many tasks using this large hierarchy; other advantages of the expand/ ...
We thank Sharon Mark and Kay Wolman for assisting in the administration of the experiment and contributing to preliminary versions of this paper. ...

Effects of structure and interaction style on distinct search tasks
2007
Proceedings of the 2007 conference on Digital libraries - JCDL '07
Three kinds of search tasks (simple lookup, complex lookup and exploratory) were performed using three different user interfaces (standard web site, hierarchical text-based faceted interface, and dynamic ...
query faceted interface) for a large-scale public corpus containing semi-structured statistical data and reports. ...
We report results for a user study of how search is influenced by two different architectures (content-driven semi-hierarchical; and faceted structure) and three different interaction styles (hypertext ...

Hierarchical Knowledge Graphs: A Novel Information Representation for Exploratory Search Tasks
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
Alongside the above study, we perform an additional mixed methods analysis of the effect of precision and recall on the performance of hierarchical knowledge graphs for two different exploratory search ...
In exploratory search tasks, alongside information retrieval, information representation is an important factor in sensemaking. ...
The authorvetted nature of hierarchical tables-of-contents was also perceived to be an asset absent from our hierarchical knowledge graphs. ...

The Relationship Between User Perception and User Behaviour in Interactive Information Retrieval Evaluation
[chapter]
2016
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this paper, we investigated both using user actions from log files, and the results of the User Engagement Scale, both of which came from a study of people interacting with a novel interface to an image ...
Measures of user behaviour and user perception have been used to evaluate interactive information retrieval systems. ...
This resulted in a three-factor solution, which accounted for approximately 76% of the variance. Table 4 displays the factor weights for three user behaviour factors. ...

Balancing thread based navigation for targeted video search
2008
Proceedings of the 2008 international conference on Content-based image and video retrieval - CIVR '08
In this paper, we propose a novel method for fast and effective search trough large video collections by embedding multiple query methods into a single browsing environment. ...
However, switching query methods often involves a change in query and browsing interface, which puts a heavy burden on the user. ...
We define three types of browsers which vary in the decision of which threads to show and which threads to hide. See figure 2 for an overview of these three browsers. ...
