چکیده

User behavior in a website is a critical exponent of the web site’s usability. Therefore an understanding of usage patterns is essential to website design optimization. This challenging problem is prominent in media-rich websites, due both to the complexity of analyzing media-based content and the challenge of understanding user-media interactions. Towards this goal, we present a novel paradigm encompassing a unique combination of interactive multimodal visualization and media-based web content mining for information goal extraction. This integrated approach offers several advantages: it delivers a gestalt view of user behavior, it offers an interactive, multimodal environment for pattern discovery, and it provides a feedback mechanism for improving website design. We evaluate these features with real data from the multimedia website of the SkyServer project.
