“…The first is based on browsing history information. Trien V. Do and Roy A. Ruddle [4] propose a tool which describe the user's interest in web pages by recording residence time, frequency of visits, number of recent visits and so on. The second is based on the user recall context for re-finding.…”

Method for Re-finding Mobile Phone Documents Based on Feature Knowledge Graph

People often need to find documents that previously saved on their mobile phones. When searching a document, sometimes people cannot recall the exact name of it, but can remember some objects in it, such as the figures, tables or formulas in the documents, the source of the documents, or related topics. And the existing mobile phone document management software cannot associate the content of the document with itself. Therefore, how to extract document information into attributes tags to associate them with documents and how to re-find the expected documents based on these tags are practical and valuable. This paper proposes a method for re-finding mobile phone documents based on feature knowledge graph. First, we use four features to describe the documents and extract tags to form attributes. Then we link the attributes with the documents to form the document knowledge graph and propose a calculation algorithm of the four tags' weight. Finally, we propose the sorting and re-finding method based on the feature knowledge graph. By using personal mobile phones data, the experiment results verify the effectiveness and efficiency of this method.

“…Refinding tools assuming passive user behavior have also been proposed for other application areas, such as history of visualizations [50], or information refinding within a Web page [51]. SearchBar and SearchPad are the most similar tools to QueryCrumbs, but require much more screen space and complex information management.…”

“…While these tools require an explicit user interaction to store the information, the SearchBar [2], SearchPad [25] and YouPivot [26] assume a passive user behavior for information storage. Re-finding tools assuming passive user behavior have also been proposed for other application areas, such as graphical history for visualizations [27], or information re-finding within a Web page [28]. SearchBar, SearchPad and YouPivot are the most similar tools to QueryCrumbs, but require much more screen space and complex information management.…”

Models of human information seeking reveal that search, in particular ad-hoc retrieval, is non-linear and iterative. Despite these findings, todays search user interfaces do not support non-linear navigation, like for example backtracking in time. In this work, we propose QueryCrumbs, a compact and easy-to-understand visualization for navigating the search query history supporting iterative query refinement. We apply a multi-layered interface design to support novices and firsttime users as well as intermediate users. The formative evaluation with first-time and intermediate users showed that the interactions can be easily performed, and the visual encodings were well understood without instructions. Results indicate that QueryCrumbs can support users when searching for information in an iterative manner.
