Abstract
Compares 3 different map displays generated from the same set of documents by either a self-organizing algorithm or human subjects. Aims to: evaluate usefulness of map displays for information seeking and observe how people search and browse on them and to compare their structural and visual features. 68 subjects were randomly assigned to 3 selected map displays. They were asked to perform simple retrieval tasks, and their performances were analyzed. Both the organization and the visual appearance of displays had significant effects on subjects' searching and browsing on the map displays
