Towards a tool for predicting user exploration

CogTool-Explorer is a tool to predict user exploration choices given a user interface and task. We describe the integration of components that make up CogToolExplorer, and how it interprets the text of both the task description and interface elements to make its exploration choices. We present CogTool-Explorer's performance on a web navigational search task compared to human performance. Keywords Cognitive Modeling, Information Foraging ACM Classification Keywords
