摘要:The ASIS&T 2008 IA Summit, Experiencing Information,
emphasized users who want to know, do or share something. A user
experiences information by creating, organizing, browsing and
searching for information. These actions contribute to the notion of
exploratory search that can be described as an information process in which
the importance of a search system’s query-document matching power is
diminished in favor of the user assuming a more assertive role in making
decisions about the search results and the next steps toward fulfilling their
information needs [1]. A straightforward and common way to distinguish an
exploratory search system is to examine the presentation of search results.
Typically some browsing facilities to supplement or replace the popular listbased
result pages are introduced and they feature grouping as a primary
mechanism for search result display.
