mAuth - Results of the User Study

The soundness of the conceptual framework of IQ measures and the ranking model for measuring authoritativeness of authorship attributions are validated by means of a user study performed by using a web application called mAuth - Mining Authoritativeness in Art History (http://purl.org/emmedi/mauth/search). The application allows users to input the URL of a cataloguing record describing an artwork and to browse the sorted list of attributions fetched in the web of data. We designed a task-based evaluation. Users performed three tasks remotely and filled in an evaluation form (https://goo.gl/forms/xDLwvCCaEFWm4D5h2). Here we present results of the survey.<br>
