In CRES project, we have investigated user's behavior and cognitive
process during interactive search on the web for various information
seeking tasks of the users. Various users' activities are
-collected for further analysis by using from eye-trackers to think-aloud
for the purposes to design better interactive IR systems for
exploratory search.
The CRES project's goal is to investigate user's behavior and cognitive
processes during various information seeking tasks on the web. Various users' activities were
-collected for analysis by using eye-trackers, think-aloud, etc., 
for the purpose of designing better interactive IR systems for
exploratory searches.

This project is supported by the National Institute of Informatics joint research grant.
