本文提出了一个交互式可视化系统WebSearchViz，用于可视化Web搜索结果，方便用户的导航和探索。我们模型中的比喻是太阳系及其行星和小行星围绕太阳旋转。对象在视觉空间中的位置、颜色、运动和空间距离被用来表示查询和相关网页之间的语义关系。特别是，对象的移动和它们的速度为视觉空间添加了新的维度，说明了在用户感兴趣的主题的上下文中查询和Web搜索结果之间的相关程度。通过与视觉空间交互，用户能够观察查询和结果网页之间相对于他们感兴趣的主题、上下文信息或关注点的语义相关性。用户感兴趣的主题可以在视觉空间中动态地改变、重新定义、添加或删除
This paper presents an interactive visualization system, named WebSearchViz, for visualizing the Web search results and facilitating users' navigation and exploration. The metaphor in our model is the solar system with its planets and asteroids revolving around the sun. Location, color, movement, and spatial distance of objects in the visual space are used to represent the semantic relationships between a query and relevant Web pages. Especially, the movement of objects and their speeds add a new dimension to the visual space, illustrating the degree of relevance among a query and Web search results in the context of users' subjects of interest. By interacting with the visual space, users are able to observe the semantic relevance between a query and a resulting Web page with respect to their subjects of interest, context information, or concern. Users' subjects of interest can be dynamically changed, redefined, added, or deleted from the visual space
