How does domain expertise affect users' search interaction and outcome in exploratory search?
People often conduct exploratory search to explore unfamiliar information space and learn
new knowledge. While supporting the highly dynamic and interactive exploratory search is …

Semantic imitation in social tagging
We present a semantic imitation model of social tagging and exploratory search based on
theories of cognitive science. The model assumes that social tags evoke a spontaneous tag …
