Effective opportunistic search in visual interfaces for large information collections, such as documents, Web pages, and annotated images, often requires domain knowledge that the information seeker does not have. Relevant semantic information, such as met ...
Semantic document annotation may be useful for many tasks. In particular, in the framework of the MDM project(http://www.issco.unige.ch/projects/im2/mdm/), topical annotation -- i.e. the annotation of document segments with tags identifying the topics disc ...
Most energy-saving applications of advanced fenestration systems, e.g. solar blinds, novel types of glazing and daylight redirecting devices, require a precise knowledge of their directional light-transmission features. These photometric properties are des ...
In this thesis, we investigate the effectiveness of semantic fisheye views for opportunistic search and sensemaking tasks over large collections of annotated images. Semantic fisheye views are interactive visualization techniques that reveal semantic detai ...
Search goals are often too complex or poorly defined to be solved in a single query. While refining their search goals, users are likely to apply a variety of strategies, such as searching for more general or more specific concepts in reaction to the infor ...
Multimedia meeting collections, composed of unedited audio and video streams, handwritten notes, slides, and electronic documents that jointly constitute a raw record of complex human interaction processes in the workplace, have attracted interest due to t ...

Effectively managing a large collection of multimedia documents is a challenge, addressed by many disciplines from signal processing through database systems to artificial intelligence and interaction design. The problems to be solved have rarely been cons ...
Exploratory search over a collection often requires users to iteratively apply a variety of strategies, such as searching for more general or more specific concepts in reaction to the information they encounter. Rich semantic models, such as WordNet, are p ...
In this paper, we present our spreadsheet framework, which uses a spreadsheet-like interface for exploring biomedical datasets. The principles and advantages of this class of visualization systems are illustrated, and a case study for the analysis of hip j ...
