    • Tobler’s Law still in effect with time series – spatial autocorrelation in temporal coherence can help in both preprocessing and estimation

    Reorganize Your Blogs: Supporting Blog Re-visitation with Natural Language Processing and Visualization
    Niu, Shuo; McCrickard, D. Scott; Stelter, Timothy L.; Dix, Alan; Taylor, G. Don (MDPI, 2019-10-07)
    Temporally-connected personal blogs contain voluminous textual content, presenting challenges in re-visiting and reflecting on experiences. Other data repositories have benefited from natural language processing (NLP) and interactive visualizations (VIS) to support exploration, but little is known about how these techniques could be used with blogs to present experiences and support multimodal interaction with blogs, particularly for authors. This paper presents the effect of reorganization—reorganizing the large blog set with NLP and presenting abstract topics with VIS—to support novel re-visitation experiences to blogs. The BlogCloud tool, a blog re-visitation tool that reorganizes blog paragraphs around user-searched keywords, implements reorganization and similarity-based content grouping. Through a public use session with bloggers who wrote about extended hikes, we observed the effect of NLP-based reorganization in delivering novel re-visitation experiences. Findings suggest that the re-presented topics provide new reflection materials and re-visitation paths, enabling interaction with symbolic items in memory.
