Title: A Causal Requirements Capture For Graphics Retrieval


Abstract:
Several research groups have addressed the problem of retrieving vector
graphics. This work has, however, focused either on domain-dependent areas
or was based on very simple graphics languages. Here we take a fresh look
at the issue of graphics retrieval in general and in particular at the
tasks which retrieval systems must support. The talk presents a series of
case studies which explored the needs of professionals in the hope that
these needs can help direct future graphics IR research.
