Basic study on an Improvement for TETDM Towards the Goal of Supporting Exploratory Date Analysis

Abstract

Knowledge discovery on text mining requires a trial-and-error process so that a user's informational requirements are unclear when they start his or her exploration. Our purpose is to support a user's information seeking behaviour on text mining. In this paper, we observe how a user behave on TETDM: Total Environment for Text Date Mining. According to the experiment, we found that 5 usability problems and 1 problem for TETDM. From obtained results, we sort the system requirements and propose that a design criteria to facilitate a user's information seeking.
