Supporting Structured Browsing for Full-Text Scientific Research Reports

Understand

Scientific research is highly structured and some of that structure is reflected in research reports.

• Traditional scientific research reports are yielding to interactive documents which expose their internal structure and are richly linked to other materials.
• In these changes, there are opportunities to take advantage of the structure in scientific research reports which previously have not been systematically captured.
• Thus, we explore ways of capturing more of the structure of research in reports about the research and we use that structure to support the development of a new generation of document browsers which include novel interaction widgets.
