Exploring knowledge graphs for exploratory search
Bahareh Sarrafzadeh, Olga Vechtomova, Vlado Jokic · 2014
In order to provide the user with more support in performing exploratory activities, recent research has been focused on identifying the types of tasks users perform, and understanding the nature of these tasks. However, most of the proposed models focus on either traditional document retrieval or the use of linked data for finding relevant information. We believe neither of these two types of information resources can offer sufficient support for complex search tasks on their own. We propose that a hybrid approach that combines the coherent content of text with the organized structure of graphs should be taken to better support information finding and sense making.
