Using visual representations for the searching and browsing of large, complex, multimedia data sets

作者：

Highlights：

• This research investigates the feasibility of using visual representations for the searching and browsing of large, complex, multimedia data sets.

• A graphical interface, SIZL, that uses an explicit zoomable timeline to support the display of multiple search results is presented.

• Participants could achieve the same accuracy in SIZL in less time compared using File Manager.

• Participants stated a preference for the overall visualization of the SIZL system.
