New approaches to interactive sessional search for complex tasks

该项目旨在开发新的工具和技术，以提高复杂信息任务的搜索和数据分析的准确性和速度。目前还没有公开的搜索引擎支持用户进行复杂的交互式搜索，或者允许搜索者完全控制自己的数据和隐私。基于对真实的用户行为和搜索需求的理解，基础研究的进展将对重要的学术、工业和政府领域产生影响，包括虚拟助手、医疗保健（临床决策支持）、精准医学、电子发现、预防犯罪和详细的社会经济评估。

This project aims to develop new tools and techniques to improve the accuracy and speed of search and data analytics for complex information tasks. There are currently no publicly available search engines which support users engaged in complex interactive search, or that allow searchers to fully control their own data and privacy. Fundamental research advances, based on understanding real user behaviour and search needs will have an impact on important academic, industrial, and government domains, including virtual assistants, health care (clinical decision support), precision medicine, eDiscovery, crime prevention, and detailed socio-economic evaluations.
