Finding relevant information in a large and comprehensive
collection of cross-referenced documents like Wikipedia
usually requires a quite accurate idea where to look for the
pieces of data being sought.

This paper describes the interactive visualization Wivi
which enables users to intuitively navigate Wikipedia by
visualizing the structure of visited articles and emphasizing
relevant other topics.


The current Degree of interest(DOI) of an article v:

A-priori-importance(API) of the unvisited articles can be
formally defined as

The temporal distance D of an unvisited article v can then
be defined as

Conclusion
N.Y.U.S.T.
I. M.

The approach combines both a visualization of visited
articles and articles that could be immediately reached
from all visited articles.

It also calculates a degree of interest of the unvisited
articles based on the structure and history of the article
graph.
