Abstract

We propose a topic-based activity review application that supports knowledge workers in reviewing activity history. This application automatically generates a knowledge work lifelog with event detection from sensor information, operation history, and used documents on a terminal; annotation term extraction considering topic estimation and collocation extraction; topic title extraction; and topic-based activity time calculation. This application enables activity review with a timeline view and activity overview with a calendar/graph view. According to an empirical evaluation with five subjects, we confirmed that the term extraction method is efficient for lifelog annotation and topic title extraction. We also identified challenges concerning determination of detailed activity time.
