Improving Motive-Based Search: Utilization of Vague Feelings and Ideas in the Process of Information Seeking
Mandy Keck, Martin Herrmann, Andreas Both, Ricardo Gaertner, Rainer Groh: Improving Motive-Based Search: Utilization of Vague Feelings and Ideas in the Process of Information Seeking. Proceedings of the First International Conference on Distributed, Ambient, and Pervasive Interactions - Volume 8028, Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., New York, NY, USA, 2013, ISBN: 978-3-642-39350-1.
Abstract
In complex search scenarios like planning a vacation or finding a suitable gift for a friend, the user usually does not know exactly what he is looking for at the beginning. However, this is the question that most search interfaces present as first step. In this paper, we discuss approaches for supporting the user in expressing a search query based on vague feelings and ideas. We therefore consider search interfaces on the syntactic, semantic and pragmatic level and discuss different mechanisms of these levels to support the first stages of the information seeking process.
