LensBar
- Visualization for Browsing and Filtering Large Lists of Data
Abstract
We propose a simple and powerful graphical interface tool
called the LensBar, for filtering and visualizing a large
list of data.
Browsing and querying are the most important techniques for
information retrieval, and
LensBar integrates the two techniques into a simple-looking
scroll window with a slider.
While it looks familiar to users of
conventional graphical interface tools,
its filtering and zooming mechanism offers
sophisticated handling of large lists of
text-oriented data.
