WebTheme: Understanding Web Information through Visual Analytics
by Jeremy at 7:49 pm EDT, Jul 29, 2002

WebTheme combines the power of software agent-based information retrieval with visual analytics to provide users with a new tool for understanding web information.

WebTheme allows users to both quickly comprehend large collections of information from the Web and drill down into interesting portions of a collection. Software agents work for users to perform controlled harvesting of web material of interest.

Visualization and analysis tools allow exploration of the resulting document space. Information spaces are organized and presented according to their topical context. Tools that display how documents were collected by the agents, where they were gathered, and how they are linked further enhance users' understanding of information and its context.

WebTheme is a significant tool in the pursuit of the Semantic Web. In particular, it supports enhanced user insight into semantics of large, pre-structured or ad-hoc, web information collections.
