Abstract This poster reports on a work in progress on the analysis of search strategies of users of an online image database. We combine transaction logging with qualitative query content analysis which enables a rich multivariate analysis of search behavior. The aim is to explore the suitability of transaction log analysis methodology in image retrieval and generate a wider understanding of the uses of image databases to inform system design.
