The usage of Web video search engines has been growing at an explosive rate. Due to the ambiguity of query terms and duplicate results, a good clustering of video search results is essential to enhance user experience as well as improve retrieval performance. Existing systems that cluster videos only consider the video content itself. This paper presents the first system that clusters Web video search results by fusing the evidences from a variety of information sources besides the video content such as title, tags and description. We propose a novel framework that can integrate multiple features and enable us to adopt existing clustering algorithms. We discuss our careful design of different components of the system and a number World Wide Web (2011) 14:53-73 of implementation decisions to achieve high effectiveness and efficiency. A thorough user study shows that with an innovative interface showing the clustering output, our system delivers a much better presentation of search results and hence increases the usability of video search engines significantly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
