Abstract

We describe the graphical search interface we have developed for multi-faceted hierarchical metadata and a video navigation system implementing this 'Revolving Cube Show' interface. This interface can treat discrete, continuous, and hierarchical attributes, enabling users to search flexibly and intuitively by using simple operations to combine attributes. Testing using data on 5495 Japanese TV programs and five attributes (channel, time zone, airtime, genre, and performer) showed that users were able to easily combine the various attributes to create dynamic search hierarchies.
