An Enactive Based Realtime 3D Self-Organization System for the Exploration of a Cultural Heritage Data Base

Abstract

This paper presents a first step in the realization of an interactive user interface that organizes itself according to the user exploration of a database of cultural heritage objects. The first part makes a brief related works and lays the basis of this kind of system according to the enactive paradigm. The second part explains the mechanisms underlying the selforganization of the interface: keywords and cultural heritage objects are 3D graphical entities endowed with autonomous behaviors. They share a common virtual environment. Keywords behaviors are based on boïds flocking simulation while cultural heritage objects appears in an virtual museum which evolves and grows progressively. The result that is presented, is an incremental construction of an interactive and realtime 3D metaphor of virtual museum which is then user-specific.

Usability of data-oriented user interfaces for cultural heritage: A systematic mapping study

“…The second-largest group contains 20% of the articles, which are focused on the adaptation of the content based on the users’ preferences or interests. There are works that get the users’ feedback either explicitly through questionnaires [47] or by automatically observing their behaviour [46,71,74] to create personalised content that users may find interesting. This group also includes works that let the end-users personalise the content on their own.…”

Inline Co-Evolution between Users and Information Presentation for Data Exploration

“…The words cloud is then self organized accordingly. A complete explanation of this self organization is provided in [11]. Semantic links between cultural objects and words and between words (together) exist and are provided through an ontology dedicated to anthropological reading of cultural heritage.…”
