Abstract

Recently, semantic search techniques which are based on information space as consisting of non- ambiguous, non-redundant, formal pieces of ontological knowledge have been developed so that users do exploit large knowledge bases. The purpose of the study is to design more user-friendly and smarter retrieval interface based on ontological analysis, which can provide more precise information by reducing semantic ambiguity or more rich linked information based on well-defined relationships. Therefore, this study, first of all, focuses on ontological analysis on researcher information as selecting descriptive elements, defining classes and properties of descriptive elements, and identifying relationships between the properties and their restriction between relationships. Next, the study designs the prototypical retrieval interface based on ontology-based representation, which supports to semantic searching and browsing regarding researchers as a full-fledged domain. On the proposed retrieval interface, users can search various facts for researcher information such as research outputs or the personal information, or carrier history and browse the social connection of the researchers such as researcher group that is lecturing or researching on the same subject or involving in the same intellectual communication.

인터넷 환경과 디지털자원의 활용환경이 빠르게 변화됨에 따라 탐색과 브라우징을 제공해주는 정보시스템의 인터페이스 또한 새롭게 변해가고 있다. 특히 최근에 검색 인터페이스에서 많이 사용되고 있는 긴 리스트의 메뉴항목을 이용자가 보다 쉽게 브라우징하고 선택할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 시각화기법을 이용하여 디스플레이하고 있다. 본 연구는 이용자와 데이터 특성에 맞는 긴 메뉴항목 시각화 기법을 제안하기 위하여 긴 리스트의 메뉴항목을 시각화하기 위하여 많이 사용되고 있는 기법 즉 트리구조 메뉴, 목차방식 메뉴, 롤-오버방식 메뉴, 클릭방식 메뉴, 어안렌즈방식 메뉴를 비교하였다 그 결과 계층구조 메뉴 중에서는 전문가는 목차방식 메뉴를, 초보자는 트리구조 메뉴를 선호하고, 또 순차적 구조 메뉴 중에서는 전문가와 초보자 모두 롤-오보방식 메뉴를 선호하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Abstract

With the rapid change of the Web and E-transaction application, the search interface is providing more powerful search and visualization methods, while offering smoother integration of technology with task. Especially, visualization techniques for long menu-lists are applied in retrieval system with the goal of improving performance in users ability to select one item from a long list. In order to review visualization techniques appropriate to the types of users and data set, this study compared the five visualization browsers such as the Tree-structured menu, the Table-of-contents menu, the Roll-over menu, the Click menu, and Fisheye menu. The result of general analyses shows that among the hierarchical methods, the experienced group prefers the Table-of-contents method menu, whereas the novices group prefers the Tree-structure method menu. Among the linear methods, the two groups prefer the Roll-over menu. The Roll-over menu is most preferred among the five browsers by the two groups.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to suggest retrieval interfaces for Korean paintings which support users to retrieve specific digitalized images of them through various access points and to widely browse based on unique features Korean paintings. The study, first, develops a set of descriptive elements suitable for Korean paintings. Twenty-six core elements and one hundred seventy-two attributes are selected as descriptive items for Korean paintings based on the opinion of 8 experts. Then, to gain realistic evidence of what descriptive elements of image serve users as access points, it is investigated which elements are used as retrieval access points among 26 core elements by 300 peered users who are consisted with two groups such as common users and domain specialists. The study, in final, designs two(general and advanced) types of search interfaces and display interfaces based on the most popular top 15 descriptive elements. This access-enhanced platform which enables user-oriented searches will satisfy users in image retrieving.
