internet search using adaptive visualization
Automatically created maps of concepts improve navigation in large collections of text documents. My research in progress on leveraging navigation by interactively providing the ability to modify the maps themselves has led me to believe that this functionality increases responsiveness to the user and makes searching more effective. I explored both what adaptive features users perceive to be most helpful and the overall effect of adaptation on achieving information seeking goals.
