LyberWorld是一个原型IR用户界面。它实现了抽象信息空间的可视化-全文。本文推导出一个模型，这样的可视化和一个范例的用户界面设计实现的概率全文检索系统INQUERY。可视化通过在抽象信息空间中应用空间导航的隐喻来以自然的方式传达信息搜索和浏览活动。介绍了用于探索信息空间和判断信息项相关性的可视化工具，并通过一个实例演示了原型。空间模型在用户头脑中的存在以及与系统的相应显示方法的交互被认为是对自然交互和减少认知成本的重要贡献，例如在查询构建、数据库内容内的定向、相关性判断和检索上下文内的定向期间。
LyberWorld is a prototype IR user interface. It implements visualizations of an abstract information space — fulltext. The paper derives a model for such visualizations and an exemplar user interface design is implemented for the probabilistic fulltext retrieval system INQUERY. Visualizations are used to communicate information search and browsing activities in a natural way by applying metaphors of spatial navigation in abstract information spaces. Visualization tools for exploring information spaces and judging relevance of information items are introduced and an example session demonstrates the prototype. The presence of a spatial model in the user’s mind and interaction with a system’s corresponding display methods is regarded as an essential contribution towards natural interaction and reduction of cognitive costs during e.g. query construction, orientation within the database content, relevance judgement and orientation within the retrieval context.
