Evaluation of Interfaces for IRS: Modelling End-User Searching Behaviour
1998
unpublished
This paper describes an investigation in progress into the searching behaviour of end-users and how it is affected by interface design. ...
that there could be some genuine end-user characteristics which are independent of system and interface design. ...
In other words, how the interface to an IRS affects the way users search for information and their performance, and how to evaluate systems to show this. ...

Evaluating interfaces for government metasearch
2010
Proceeding of the third symposium on Information interaction in context - IIiX '10
Metasearch tools, which combine search results from any number of independent search engines, could be useful in a range of tasks and especially for integrating information from separate government agencies ...
However, it is not immediately clear what user interfaces might be appropriate for presenting results from more than one source. ...
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We would like to thank our colleagues in Centrelink for their support and their useful input, and our participants for their time. ...

Teaching IR: Curricular Considerations
[chapter]
2011
Teaching and Learning in Information Retrieval
Cognitive models and user interfaces Whereas database systems are mostly accessed from application programs, queries to IR systems are typically entered via a user interface. ...
IR user studies typically provide test users with hypothetical search tasks in order to allow for a comparison. ...

A decision-theoretic approach to database selection in networked IR
1999
ACM Transactions on Information Systems
Thus HCI studies in which participants representing users are invited in to use software will retain a place in IR evaluation e.g. for rapid improvement of the user interface. ...
Clearly changing the user interface not the underlying IR engine is what is needed, but traditional IR evaluation cannot address this. ...
Totals for EC funded part of the network and the whole network are shown separately. ...

On the history of evaluation in IR
2008
Journal of information science
This paper is a personal take on the history of evaluation experiments in information retrieval. ...
It describes some of the early experiments that were formative in our understanding, and goes on to discuss the current dominance of TREC (the Text REtrieval Conference) and to assess its impact. ...
Acknowledgements I am grateful to the following for extremely useful comments on drafts of this paper: Alan Gilchrist, Donna Harman, Ellen Voorhees, Chris Buckley, Bob Oddy, and an anonymous referee. ...

A task completion framework to support single-interaction IR research
2018
Journal of Documentation
Originality: This work contributes a novel task-oriented IR conceptual model and evaluation framework, both centred around the concept of BI for siIR. ...
There are few, if any, IR conceptual models supporting minimal or single-interaction IR (siIR) user scenarios, however the need for siIR systems is growing rapidly. ...
What is the search task and user group? 2. How do you derive the BI for each search task? 3. What measures are suitable for system evaluation?
What is the Search Task and User Group? ...

New IR - new evaluation: the impact of interaction and multimedia on information retrieval and its evaluation
1997
New Review of Hypermedia and Multimedia
The emergence into widespread use both of multimedia and of interactive user interfaces has extensive implications for this field and the evaluation methods on which it depends. ...
One is that between comprehensive models that have a place for every possible relevant factor, and lightweight methods. ...
We also thank an anonymous reviewer for moving this paper further beyond being a report on Mira and nearer to being an adequate reflection of the field as a whole. New IR -New Evaluation ...

Workshop on Barriers to Interactive IR Resources Re-use (BIIRRR 2019)
2019
Proceedings of the 2019 Conference on Human Information Interaction and Retrieval - CHIIR '19
This paper presents an overview of the BIIRRR 2019 workshop at CHIIR 2019, which had the explicit aim of understanding and promoting re-use of resources for interactive IR experimentation. ...
Hall [14] describes his experiences with developing and re-using software for both of experimental workflow and search user interfaces in IIR experiments. ...
The second software component described by Hall, PyIRE, was a workbench for developing search user interfaces to be used in conjunction with ESS. ...
