Abstract

Faced with the difficulty of formulating precise queries to retrieve items from large scale databases, interactive interfaces implementing a faceted search strategy help the users navigate through the data by successively selecting facet-value pairs. This paper presents a faceted search strategy to construct fuzzy queries. The interactive query construction process relies on precomputed metadata that inform about the data distribution over a predefined vocabulary.
