论文摘要

思维映射是探索创意思维练习中设计空间的流行方式,使用户可以在概念之间建立关联。但是,大多数现有的数字工具用于思维映射专注于创作和组织,几乎没有支持解决停滞和设计固定等思维映射的挑战。我们提出Spinneret,这是一种功能性的方法,可以通过基于知识图提供建议来帮助思维映射。 Spinneret使用有偏见的随机步道来探索思维映射中现有概念节点附近的知识图,并为用户提供“建议”,以添加到思维映射中。一项与基线思维映射工具的比较研究表明,参与者用Spinneret创建了更多样化和不同的概念,并报告说,这些建议启发了他们思考他们原本不会探索的想法。

Mind mapping is a popular way to explore a design space in creative thinking exercises, allowing users to form associations between concepts. Yet, most existing digital tools for mind mapping focus on authoring and organization, with little support for addressing the challenges of mind mapping such as stagnation and design fixation. We present Spinneret, a functional approach to aid mind mapping by providing suggestions based on a knowledge graph. Spinneret uses biased random walks to explore the knowledge graph in the neighborhood of an existing concept node in the mind map, and provides "suggestions" for the user to add to the mind map. A comparative study with a baseline mind-mapping tool reveals that participants created more diverse and distinct concepts with Spinneret, and reported that the suggestions inspired them to think of ideas they would otherwise not have explored.
