%T How can heat maps of indexing vocabularies be utilized for information seeking purposes? %A Mutschke, Peter %A Haddou ou Moussa, Karima %E Mutschke, Peter %E Mayr, Philipp %E Scharnhorst, Andrea %P 47-52 %V 1311 %D 2014 %K heat map; knowledge map %@ 1613-0073 %~ GESIS %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-46816-7 %X The ability to browse an information space in a structured way by exploiting similarities and dissimilarities between information objects is crucial for knowledge discovery. Knowledge maps use visualizations to gain insights into the structure of large-scale information spaces, but are still far away from being applicable for searching. The paper proposes a use case for enhancing search term recommendations by heat map visualizations of co-word relationships taken from indexing vocabulary. By contrasting areas of different “heat” the user is enabled to indicate mainstream areas of the field in question more easily.
