同步协同信息检索中协调技术的评价

Evaluation of Coordination Techniques in Synchronous Collaborative Information Retrieval

Colum Foley, Alan F. Smeaton

摘要:

传统的信息检索(IR)研究集中在一个单一的用户交互模式,用户搜索,以满足信息的需要。网络技术和计算机硬件的最新进展使得多个用户能够在许多计算机支持的任务上进行协作,因此,支持两个或更多个用户同时一起搜索以满足共享信息需求的机会越来越多,我们将其称为同步协作信息检索(SCIR)。SCIR系统代表了传统IR系统的重大范式转变。为了支持有效的SCIR,需要新的技术来协调用户的活动。此外,新领域的SCIR提出了挑战,这些系统的有效评估。在本文中,我们将提出一个有效的和可重用的评估方法的基础上模拟用户搜索在一起。我们将概述我们如何使用这种评估的影响,不同的分工和共享的知识技术SCIR的实证研究。

英文摘要:

Traditional Information Retrieval (IR) research has focussed on a single user interaction modality, where a user searches to satisfy an information need. Recent advances in web technologies and computer hardware have enabled multiple users to collaborate on many computer-supported tasks, therefore there is an increasing opportunity to support two or more users searching together at the same time in order to satisfy a shared information need, which we refer to as Synchronous Collaborative Information Retrieval (SCIR). SCIR systems represent a significant paradigmatic shift from traditional IR systems. In order to support effective SCIR, new techniques are required to coordinate users' activities. In addition, the novel domain of SCIR presents challenges for effective evaluations of these systems. In this paper we will propose an effective and re-usable evaluation methodology based on simulating users searching together. We will outline how we have used this evaluation in empirical studies of the effects of different division of labour and sharing of knowledge techniques for SCIR.
