Exploratory Search System (ESS)

Exploratory Search System (ESS) is a tool that enables information-seeking tasks such as learning and investigating. It provides an increased level of interaction with the data, as opposed to traditional search which is query-response oriented and good for well-defined information needs or goals.

The detailed idea, method, and architecture of the Exploratory Search System (ESS) can be found in our paper published in the VOILA 2022 Proceedings. We invite you to read it and learn more about our research. The full paper is available here.
