Alberto Tretti, Barbara Di Eugenio · 2010
Aggregation of long lists of concepts is important to avoid overwhelming a small display.Focusing on the domain of mobile local search, this paper presents the development of an application to perform aggregation of Yahoo!Local results.We performed an analysis of the data available through Yahoo!Local, compiled new resources, and developed algorithms evaluated through a prototype.The results obtained from a user study show that, while maintaining the quality of the results and a high user satisfaction, the methods implemented can significantly reduce the result space.
