Abstract

This paper presents the MicroNOMAD Discovering tool. The tool combines both topographic structures, textual and iconographic interaction, as well as viewpoint exchanges by the mean of a major extension of the classical Kohonen SOM model. It may be used for various discovering tasks in a multimedia Digital Library context. The tool basic principles are firstly described. Finally, a tool experimentation that has been carried out on the multimedia database associated to the BIBAN “Art Nouveau” server is presented.
