Does History Matter? /slideshow/does-history-matter/13425623 catch-bridge-slides-120622224438-phpapp02
When pursuing complex information needs (e.g., doing genealogical searching, exploring historical archives, planning a vacation, doing a patent search, etc.), people often run multiple queries to discover effective search terms, to break the problem down into sub-tasks, to reflect an evolving understanding of the information need, etc. Such queries often retrieve many of the same documents, but most systems offer no help in understanding this redundancy. In this talk, I will describe Querium, an interactive information seeking system I have been building that helps people make sense of their past interactions, that helps them understand how the current results relate to what has been found before, and thus helps them plan for the future. These slides are from an invited talk I gave at a NWO-sponsored CATCH meeting by BRIDGE on June 22, 2012 in The Netherlands.

ºÝºÝߣs from my presentation at the ECIR 2012 workshop on "Information Retrieval Over Query Sessions" (SIR2012) held in Barcelona, Spain. Title: Exploring Session Search Abstract: Exploratory search is typically characterized by recall-oriented information needs and by uncertainty and evolution of the information need. As searchers interact with the system, their understanding of the topic evolves in response to found information. These two characteristics – uncertainty of information need and the desire to find multiple documents – drive the need to run multiple queries. Furthermore, these queries are not independent of each other because they often retrieve overlapping sets of documents. Yet traditional information retrieval systems often treat searchers’ queries in isolation, ignoring the evolution of a person’s understanding of the information need and the historical coupling among queries. I this talk, I will describe some interface ideas we're exploring to help people incorporate their search history into their ongoing retrieval and sense-making tasks, and will touch on some issues related to retrieval algorithms and evaluation.]]>

Interactive Information Seeking via Selective Application of Contextual Knowledge /slideshow/conference-presentation-5019960/5019960 conferencepresentation-100820110844-phpapp01
Exploratory search is a difficult activity that requires iterative interaction. This iterative process helps the searcher to understand and to refine the information need. It also generates a rich set of data that can be used effectively to reflect on what has been found (and found useful). While traditional information retrieval systems have focused on organizing the data that was retrieved, in this paper, we describe a systematic approach to organizing the metadata generated during the search process. We describe a framework for unifying transitions among various stages of exploratory search, and show how context from one stage can be applied to the next. The framework can be used both to describe existing information seeking interactions, and as a means of generating novel ones. We illustrate the framework with examples from a session-based exploratory search system prototype.]]>

A Model Of Collaborative Search /slideshow/a-model-of-collaborative-search/2315558 amodelofcollaborativesearch-091021212830-phpapp01
In the library sciences, information seeking has long been recognized as a collaborative activity, and recent work has attempted to model group information seeking behavior. Until recently, technological support for group-based information seeking has been limited to collaborative filtering and "social search" applications. In the past two years, however, a new kind of technologically-mediated collaborative search has been demonstrated in systems such as SearchTogether and Cerchiamo. This approach is more closely grounded in the library science interpretation of collaboration: rather than inferring commonality of interest through similarity of queries (social search), the new approach assumes an explicitly-shared information need for a group. This allows the system to focus on mediating the collaboration rather than detecting its presence. In this talk, we describe a model that captures both user behavior and system architecture, describe its relationship to other models of information seeking, and use it to classify existing multi-user search systems. We also describe implications this model has for design and evaluation of new collaborative information seeking systems. Talk presented at NIST on October 22, 2009.]]>
