Information navigation on the web by clustering and summarizing query results

Abstract: We report our experience with a novel approach to interactive information seeking that is grounded in the idea of summarizing query results through automated document clustering. We went through a complete system development and evaluation cycle: designing the algorithms and interface for our prototype, implementing them and testing with human users. Our prototype acted as an intermediate layer between the user and a commercial Internet search engine (AltaVista), thus allowing searches of the signi®cant portio… Show more

“…Our work also share some commonalities with clustering and summarizing web search results [39,22,55,56,51,49,11]. Their methods try to group the search results into clusters and provide easy access and browsing ways for user to get information.…”

“…SOM has been successfully used as a clustering technique in many computing areas such as image analysis, optical patterns, acoustic processing, speech recognition, signal processing, and robotics (Kohonen, 2001). It has also been applied to documents organization (Kaski et al, 1998), database schema (Zhao and Ram, 2004), web search results (Roussinov and Chen, 2001), and financial areas like real estate appraisal, mutual fund portfolio, etc. (Deboeck andKohonen, 1998, Vesanto, 1999).…”

“…Where the objects being clustered are easy to assess for relevance, such as images or video key-frames, the objects themselves are usually displayed (e.g., Heesch & Rüger, 2004). Where the objects are more complex, clusters will typically have some form of surrogate to label the grouping and aid the searcher's understanding of the grouping (Roussinov & Chen, 2001). Visualizations can be useful but can also create usability problems if there is insufficient support for navigation and searchers' decisions about their own search process (Wiesman, van den Herik, & Hasman, 2004).…”
