Title:InfoCrystal as a visual query language
Abstract:
Boolean query is frequently used in finding information in large data sets and in Information Retrieval, but it's difficult for users to formulate complex queries and to refine their queries using conventional query languages. InfoCrystal can be used as a visual query language to make boolean query more user-friendly and can also be used as a visualization tool to make ranked output more informative. In the talk, I will give a brief introduction on InfoCrystal, and an analysis on its advantage and disadvantages as a visual query language.
