About CRES (Cognitive Research for Exploratory Search) project †
In CRES project, we have investigated users 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.
